OusleyWhat 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 Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 1, 7:08 AM CDT, 51 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 1, 7:08 AM CDT, 51 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lincoln IL 708 AM CDT Wed May 1 2019 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) ISSUED AT 315 AM CDT Wed May 1 2019 A weak low center is moving through Central IL this morning, with an unusual representation...part of an elongated trough reaching back into the central and southern Plains states. Several disturbances moving through the southwesterly flow aloft, bringing round after round of showers and thunderstorms. Given the ongoing precip, keeping the headlines in place. However, given the clearing anticipated behind this round, and likely to provide a lull for much of central IL this morning and through maybe midday if not just becoming less widespread...think the watch may end up seeing an early cancellation. But until light of day and a better view of the impacts are available, hesitate to pull the headline entirely. As to the forecast for today, a bit cooler overall in the forecast. The rich RH through the column along the sfc trough will keep clouds in place, and the frontal boundary stalling out to the south preventing much in the way of WAA yesterday into Central IL. Although the forecast winds are more southwesterly through today are not exactly parallel...they are also not going to provide a strong push of that boundary to the north. The next wave of precip is also moving in further to the south, setting up some cooling of that airmass complicating any anticipated movement. As a result, the temperature gradient across the Midwest is a low confidence mess. Chances for showers and thunderstorms diminish into the overnight hours, but given the active pattern and the continued southwesterly flow from a deep southwestern trough, cannot be lost entirely. .LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday) ISSUED AT 315 AM CDT Wed May 1 2019 Another wave making a pass through the Midwest Thursday brings back the showers and thunderstorms to the forecast. Model differences abound with the details, coverage, and most markedly the northern extent. Given expected cloud coverage, instability may remain somewhat limited into the afternoon hours, but the remains of the frontal boundary will end up providing just enough focus for the threat of potential severe storms over the southern tier of the state. With the western trough aloft weakened and lifting, the pattern at 500mb starts to shift, but not as quickly as previously forecast. Models have not yet achieved a consistent picture of Friday with a weak system bringing showers and storms to the south...ECMWF a little further north...but neither entirely dry for 24 hrs. There is a little hope for later in the weekend as a stronger wave dives into the Upper Midwest from Canada, breaking up the pattern a bit. This will result in a more traditional cold frontal passage for Sun night/Monday and precip again for Central IL, but clearing behind it and a least a brief break from the run of wet weather. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday morning) Issued at 708 AM CDT Wed May 1 2019 Low pressure area was over the area and continues to move east this morning. As this occurs, precip is waning/diminishing across the area. Cigs are MVFR at PIA and are expected to remain that way through the day. BMI is LIFR but will increase later this morning to MVFR. SPI is at MVFR and then will rise to VFR this afternoon. DEC is VFR cigs but am expecting them to go down to MVFR later this morning. However, like SPI will rise to VFR for the afternoon into the evening hours...then back to MVFR after midnight. CMI is IFR but expected to rise to MVFR later this afternoon...then VFR and then MVFR after midnight. Will keep VCSH at all TAF sites for the morning hours, but believe most part of the day will be dry. More precip could arrive late tonight, but will not add just yet. Winds will be south to southwest through the day then become light this evening and overnight. && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
