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 Twin Cities, MN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Sep 12, 4:58 AM CDT, 1 hour 47 minutes earlier.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN
458 AM CDT Thu Sep 12 2019

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Friday)
Issued at 451 AM CDT Thu Sep 12 2019

Surface analysis early this morning shows a potent low pressure
center along the eastern SD/NE border with a warm front extending
nearly due east over northern IA and into the northern Ohio Valley
along with a trailing cold front extending southwest across
central NE into western KS. Aloft, a potent upper low sits to the
north of the surface low within a deepening compact trough.

Deep moisture (PWATS between 1.5"-1.8") will accompany the surface
low as it gradually becomes picked up by the upper low as that
feature moves east northeast over ND, through northern MN and into
far western Ontario province through Friday afternoon. The surface
feature will become occluded by late this afternoon as it moves
into western MN. This will slow down the progression of the
system. The low is then progged to become deeply stacked tonight
through Friday as it moves through northern MN and western
Ontario. The deep moisture, frontogenesis and slow movement of the
system will spell fairly widespread rain with embedded pockets of
heavy rain through much of the day. Difficult to pin down the
timing of the heavy rain but based on current radar mosaic imagery
and MRMS timing, the one NW-SE band pushing northward in southeast
MN would be one such band while another round is gearing up in
southwestern MN, looking to move NE. QPF still looks to be in the
1-2" range for central MN with 2-3" in southern MN into western
WI, including the Twin Cities metro.

Even with the approaching line in southwest MN, multiple CAMs
still display re-development of convection early-to-mid afternoon
with a continued heavy rain threat along with some severe
potential. As alluded to in the SPC SWODY1, widespread ascent
along with H5 height falls with the approach of the upper low
should aid in boundary layer re-strengthening. Though having some
isolation would be ideal to convective development, enough
dynamics in place with the upper low and a nearby H5 jet max
should be enough to produce isolated, if not clusters, of storm
cells which may be capable of large hail, damaging winds or
isolated tornadoes. Best timing of any severe weather today would
be this afternoon and evening but the highly conditional nature of
all the ingredients makes this a tricky forecast.

The precipitation overall will wind down late tonight into Friday
morning. As such, the flooding threat look to no longer be there
beyond this afternoon. While scattered rain showers look possible
late tonight through tomorrow, mainly over central MN into
northwestern WI, the QPF will be decidedly less by that time.

As for temperatures, there looks to be a rather tight gradient of
temperatures from north to south across the WFO MPX coverage area.
Currently, highs will range from the lower 60s in central MN to
the lower 70s near the IA border.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 451 AM CDT Thu Sep 12 2019

The main message of the extended forecast is the seasonably warm
weather that will settle in next week with afternoon highs in the
80s, and overnight lows in the mid 60s to upper 60s. In addition
to the warm temperatures, dewpoints will be in the upper 60s to
lower 70s, which means this will feel more muggy like a late
summer heat wave as opposed to a drier early fall heat wave.

In the meantime, confidence remains fairly high in an area of
thunderstorms across the MN/WI border Saturday night into Sunday
morning. This will develop ahead of an upper level shortwave
trough on the leading edge of H850 Thete_e advection, and as
mentioned in the previous forecast there is enough instability and
deep layer shear for a few strong to severe thunderstorms.

The heat will be the main story early next week, but a deep trough
will move across the western Conus toward the middle of the week.
This trough will most certainly bring showers and thunderstorms
across the region, but the timing is still uncertain so continued
with the blended guidance for now which gives a larger timeframe
of lower pops. In reality, it will be a smaller window of
widespread showers and thunderstorms.

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night)
Issued at 1218 AM CDT Thu Sep 12 2019

MVFR/IFR overnight. The thunderstorms moving slower than forecast,
so have delayed the timing of the arrival at the northern taf
sites. It does still look like there will be two rounds. The first
one will lift though from the south overnight and this morning,
and the next one will swing through from the west Thursday
afternoon.

KMSP...

MVFR/IFR overnight. Have delayed the timing of the showers and
thunderstorms tonight, but they should eventually reach KMSP and
move out after the morning rush. We expect another area of storms
to develop later in the afternoon and go into the evening.
Eventually conditions will improve to MVFR and VFR Friday morning.

/OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/
FRI...VFR with MVFR possible. Wind W at 20G30 kts.
SAT...VFR. Chc MVFR/TSRA late. Wind S at 10G20 kts.
SUN...VFR. Wind NW at 10 kts.

southern Minnesota...and west central Wisconsin.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

There is a Slight Risk of severe thunderstorms over southern
Minnesota and a Marginal Risk of severe thunderstorms over
central Minnesota into western Wisconsin through this afternoon.
The main hazards are large hail and damaging winds but an isolated
tornado cannot be ruled out.

Periods of rain with some embedded pockets of heavy rain can be
expected today. The heavy rain may lead to flash flooding,
especially over much of southern Minnesota where a Flash Flood
Watch remains in effect through this afternoon.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday

There is a Marginal Risk of severe thunderstorms on Saturday,
mainly during the afternoon and evening, for southeastern
Minnesota into west central and southwestern Wisconsin. The main
hazards are large hail and damaging winds.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SKYWARN spotter activation may be needed and rainfall reports are
appreciated.
