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.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 22, 6:40 AM CDT, 3 hours 22 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion...Updated Aviation
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
640 AM CDT Sat Jun 22 2019

.SHORT TERM...  (Through Late Tonight)
Issued at 235 AM CDT Sat Jun 22 2019

An MCS was dropping southeastward towards the St Louis metro area
early this morning. Will continue the Flash Flood Watch for parts
of northeast and central MO and west central and southwest IL
until 7 am. This MCS should gradually weaken and drop south-
southeast of our forecast area by noon. Until then there may still
be heavy downpours along with strong wind gusts on the leading
edge convection of the MCS this morning. The cloud cover should
thin out later this morning, and this along with an upper level
ridge over our area and southwesterly surface winds will lead to
warmer high temperatures today. These warm temperatures along with
high humidity will create dangerously high heat indices in the St
Louis metro area. Will continue the Heat Advisory for the St
Louis metro area this afternoon into the early evening. Another
nocturnal MCS may impact parts of our forecast area tonight as the
upper level ridge shifts east of our region with a southwesterly
flow shortwave approaching our area tonight.

GKS

.LONG TERM...  (Sunday through Friday)
Issued at 235 AM CDT Sat Jun 22 2019

A nocturnal MCS may be moving through our forecast area Sunday
morning with additional convection likely during the afternoon and
evening as an upper level trough approaches along with an
associated cold front which will move eastward through our
forecast area Sunday night. High temperatures will be slightly
cooler on Sunday due to increased cloud cover, precipitation, and
lowering upper level heights. Most of the convection should shift
east of our forecast area by Monday as the upper level trough
moves east-northeast of our region and the cold front moves east
of our area with slightly cooler and less humid air advecting into
the region. A less active and drier weather pattern is expected
for the upcoming work week. Warmer temperatures are forecast by
Wednesday as an upper level ridge develops over the central US
along with persistent southerly winds.

.AVIATION...  (For the 12z TAFs through 12z Sunday Morning)
Issued at 631 AM CDT Sat Jun 22 2019

Most of the current convection will likely shift southeast of the
taf sites later this morning. There should be prevailing MVFR
ceiling heights this morning. The cloud ceiling should rise into
the VFR category later this morning in COU, by early evening in
the St Louis metro area, and by late tonight in UIN. Another
nocturnal MCS may move into UIN and COU late tonight and into STL
Sunday morning. Southeasterly surface winds will become more
south-southwesterly by late tonight.

SPECIFICS FOR KSTL: Most of the current convection will likely
shift southeast of STL by 18Z Saturday. There should be
prevailing MVFR ceiling heights today. The cloud ceiling should
rise into the VFR category by early evening. Another nocturnal
MCS may move into STL Sunday morning. Southeasterly surface winds
will become more south-southwesterly by late tonight.
