What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Tallahassee, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Dec 2, 10:28 AM EST, 40 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 2, 10:28 AM EST, 40 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tallahassee FL
1028 AM EST Sun Dec 2 2018

.UPDATE...

Updated grids and zones for new tornado watch until 23z for areas
generally south and east of a line from near Albany to Colquitt.
Local radars are very active showing numerous lines of convection
with training cells. Some storms are capable of producing tornados
and a few warnings have recently been issued in the watch area.
There were no other changes made to the current forecast.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION [627 AM EST]...

.NEAR TERM [Through Today]...

A cold front associated with a strong low pressure area is analyzed
across N/C AL southwest through southern Mississippi. This front is
expected to move towards and into our area today and then stall by
the end of the day from roughly Albany to Panama City. Southwest
mid/upper flow will remain and becoming parallel to the surface
front so training of showers and storms and a continued threat for
flash flooding will continue today. Probabilities of heavy rainfall
have increased to the east of the previous flash flood watch so I
have extended the watch eastward to along and just east of I-75.

Hi Res models continue to indicate enough decent MLCAPE and Bulk
Shear to warrant a severe risk through the day. Damaging winds and
and isolated tornado or two will be the main threats. SPC has
outlooked our entire area in a marginal risk of severe weather and
areas from Dothan, Marianna, and Tallahassee northeastward are
outlooked in a slight risk for severe weather.

.SHORT TERM [Tonight Through Tuesday]...

Heavy rain and isolated severe thunderstorm threat will persist
through Monday. Threat will gradually shift out of SE AL during
the time frame but the FFA was still extended for all areas in our
CWA except the southern Big Bend counties. Greatest flooding risk
will be over the GA and FL counties that have already seen
excessive rains of 3-6 inches. Conditions will dry out Monday
Night behind a rather strong cold front. Much less humid and
turning cooler on Tuesday.

.LONG TERM [Tuesday Night Through Sunday]...

Dry weather is expected through Friday as high pressure dominates.
Temperatures will start quite chilly but steadily warm during the
late week timeframe. Next rain chances arrive with what looks to
be another active front next weekend.

.AVIATION...
[Through 12Z Monday]

Southwesterly flow aloft will continue to fuel showers and
thunderstorms across the area today into tonight. Variable flt
conds will range from IFR in heavier convection to MVFR outside of
convection with winds mainly from the southwest but gusty in and
around convection. Overnight...some vsby restriction in fog and
mist appear possible at most TAF sites.

.MARINE...

Winds and seas will gradually subside today into tonight and
remain lower on Monday. Showers and thunderstorms will persist
over the waters into Monday. Winds and seas higher near
thunderstorms. A cold front will push through the waters by
Tuesday ushering in a period of strong northwesterly winds.

.FIRE WEATHER...

Other than low dispersions, widespread rainfall will preclude any
fire weather concerns through the period.

.HYDROLOGY...

A flash flood watch remains in effect for all but the southern Big
Bend through Monday and significant rises on many area rivers are
occurring and expected to continue. Three to locally six inches
of rain fell in several swaths across areas near and north of I-10
since Saturday morning. An additional one to three inches of rain
is expected through Monday with localized amounts of three to
five inches possible.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not requested. However, spotters are always
encouraged to safely report significant weather conditions when they
occur by calling the office or tweeting us @NWSTallahassee.
