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 Tulsa, OK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jun 23, 2:56 PM CDT, 4 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 23, 2:56 PM CDT, 4 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tulsa OK 256 PM CDT Sun Jun 23 2019 .DISCUSSION... Main forecast concerns are in the very short term with the expected significant heavy rain and flash flooding event, in addition to severe thunderstorm potential, unfolding across eastern Oklahoma and western Arkansas. The biggest change to the going forecast has been to cancel roughly the northern half of the Flash Flood Watch early, leaving the southern portion of the watch intact through the planned expiration tomorrow morning. Thunderstorms producing very heavy rainfall are ongoing across southeast Oklahoma, some of which are affecting areas that were hard hit with rainfall and flash flooding last night. One-hour rainfall estimates of 1 to 2 inches, with isolated 3 inches, have been common with today's thunderstorms. Much of the area has been fairly worked over by the morning and early afternoon thunderstorms, except for far southeast Oklahoma where CAPEs of 4000-5000 J/kg persist. This instability should allow for ongoing storms to increase some this afternoon before the slow moving convective line finally clears the area this evening. Damaging wind will continue to be the primary severe weather threat, with large hail and tornadoes being secondary. The latest data indicate that most of the storms should be south and east of the area early tomorrow morning, and it is possible that the rest of the Flash Flood Watch could be cancelled early. Tomorrow should be fairly quiet after the eventful weekend, although thunderstorm chances will increase again mainly late Tuesday and into Tuesday night as a disturbance moves through the area along the periphery of the building ridge. The rest of the upcoming work week will feature fairly climatological weather with temperatures near normal and low thunderstorm chances favored over the higher terrain of southeast Oklahoma and western Arkansas. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
