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 Northern Indiana wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Feb 5, 6:33 AM EST, 4 hours 9 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 5, 6:33 AM EST, 4 hours 9 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
633 AM EST Tue Feb 5 2019

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 348 AM EST Tue Feb 5 2019

After highs today from around 35 to 40, rain is expected to
develop by this evening with freezing rain over mainly Lower
Michigan where ice accumulations are expected. Temperatures will
dip below freezing overnight north of the Michigan line, but then
rise above freezing Wednesday morning, limiting the amount of
freezing rain and icing. Travel north into central Lower Michigan
and west into northern Illinois may be difficult into Wednesday as
significant icing is expected.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Thursday)
Issued at 344 AM EST Tue Feb 5 2019

Concerns linger for the development of freezing rain tonight as
surface temperatures fall below freezing mainly north of the
Michigan line and as very mild air spreads north over a wedge of
cold air. WPC models continued to support mild thermal profiles
indicating virtually no chance for snow with warm layer temps
generally between 5C and 9C. Sleet is also not likely given the
lack of a deep enough and cold enough layer at and just above the
surface to support sleet. Rainfall amounts are sufficient to support
a significant ice event including meeting the ice threshold of
0.25 inch for an ice storm; however, several factors will hinder
ice accrual including rain that is not supercooled and pavement
temperatures being marginally cold for ice causing a high
percentage of runoff. believe actual ice accretion should be under
a tenth of an inch. After coordination with surrounding offices,
have continued to hold off with any winter weather headline as
believe this situation can be best handled the the Special Weather
Statement product.

In addition to wintry weather, the likelihood of general river
flooding and some flooding of lowlands will increase as the main
low moves northeast into the Upper Great Lakes region Thursday night.
Concerns have increased that heavier rainfall with a high runoff
potential will bring rises on rivers and likely will send at least
some of them in flood, especially those in the Upper Wabash and the
Maumee basins. Flooding of lowlands will become more exacerbated,
especially those more prone to flood.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Monday)
Issued at 344 AM EST Tue Feb 5 2019

Cold air will spread over the region for this weekend. Saturday
will be mostly sunny but cold as a ridge of high pressure moves
over the area. A mix of rain and snow is possible early next week
as the pattern becomes more unsettled.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Wednesday Morning)
Issued at 626 AM EST Tue Feb 5 2019

Satellite and surface obs show low level cloud deck remaining in
place across the western Great Lakes with little to no erosion
overnight. Given lack of any clearing signal and hires guidance
trends of keeping this cloud deck in place today, have trended
tafs more pessimistic today. Did try to trend up to MVFR at KFWA
with rising bases today. Cigs and vis expected to lower again
tonight as rain moves in with next system. Guidance continues to
trend warmer so threat of freezing rain at terminals is very low
with temps likely around 34-35F.
