What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Omaha, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at May 21, 3:55 PM CDT, 3 hours 15 minutes earlier.

Area Forecast Discussion

355 PM CDT Tue May 21 2019

.SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Friday)
Issued at 350 PM CDT Tue May 21 2019

WV imagery this afternoon showing a longwave trough with embedded
circulations...one currently lifting into SW KS and the other
centered over the Pacific NW. Surface reflection of the former was
centered over SW KS.

Meanwhile 88D mosaic was showing a large area of precip over WRN
SD/NE panhandle/NW KS with another area over MO streaming northward
into IA.

For tonight, precip will be gradually diminishing from south to
north overnight as the upper low lifts out of western KS this
evening and into the Dakotas by early Wednesday morning. CAMs do
suggest a few cells lifting out of KS into the southern CWA this
evening, but given excessive cloud cover/nil diurnal heating,
chances are very low any will turn severe.

On Wednesday, dry and warmer in part to southwest winds and
increased mixing by afternoon.

Wednesday night models prog low level baroclinic zone setting up
from northern MO into central KS with precip developing along the
boundary. The boundary/precip activity is progged to slowly lift
northward and expand across the CWA on Thursday. Both the NAM and
GFS suggest environmental moisture content will be high with PW
approaching 2 inches by Thursday night. Given strong differential
divergence coupled with stout 315K isentropic upglide and favorable
precip efficiency/deep warm cloud layer, conditions will be quite
favorable for an excessive rainfall event. Dry then the majority
of the CWA on Friday. Portions of southwest IA and southwest NE
though may see some lingering activity mainly in the morning
hours.

A gradual warming trend on tap the next few days. Expect highs in
the mid/upper 60s on Wednesday with mid 60s/low 70s Thursday. On
Friday, highs will top out in the mid/upper 70s.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 350 PM CDT Tue May 21 2019

GFS and ECM in agreement precip chances continue through the weekend
into early next week. Flow aloft turns near zonal keeping a surface
boundary meandering through and close to the CWA and the focus for
additional rainfall accumulation.

Warm conditions continue with highs on Thursday in the mid/upper 80s
and mid 80s on Friday. Cooling trend takes place over the weekend
with mid/upper 70s on Saturday and mid 60s/low 70s Sunday.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday afternoon)
Issued at 1226 PM CDT Tue May 21 2019

A more continuous band of rain is rapidly lifting north through
the area as of early afternoon with widely scattered showers
present farther south across southeast NE. We expect prevailing
rain showers at KOFK this afternoon with more of a "vicinity
shower" situation at KOMA and KLNK. By late afternoon into this
evening, the potential for thunderstorms will increase at all TAF
sites. The precipitation should diminish from south to north
across the area later this evening into the overnight hours.

With respect to clouds, observations indicate widespread IFR
ceilings with a few pockets of MVFR criteria. In general, we
expect prevailing IFR conditions into early evening with gradually
lifting ceilings from south to north thereafter. Winds will
remain strong from the east this afternoon before gradually
switching to southeast by evening. LLWS will be an issue later
this afternoon into evening, especially at KOFK and KOMA.
