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 Grand Forks, ND wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 16, 6:45 AM CDT, 3 hours 6 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 16, 6:45 AM CDT, 3 hours 6 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Grand Forks ND
645 AM CDT Sun Aug 16 2020

.UPDATE...
Issued at 640 AM CDT Sun Aug 16 2020

A broad altostratus deck has formed over the region, possibly from
weak lift associated with DCVA ahead of an impulse noted in water
vapor imagery moving southeast through ND. This stratus may linger
through the morning for the Red River Valley and Minnesota
locations. This should move east by afternoon allowing diurnal Cu
development, the slight chance of southern Valley/WC MN afternoon
showers, and expected highs in the mid 70s to low 80s. Little fog
developed due to this cloud feature.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Monday)
Issued at 313 AM CDT Sun Aug 16 2020

Calm and seasonable morning continues with lows in the low 50s
near the international border to upper 50s within the southern Red
River Valley. Some passing high level cirrus and patchy stratus is
limiting the potential for fog, although some patchy shallow fog
cannot be ruled out before sunrise given the calm winds, saturated
grounds, and cooling temps at or near saturation.

Today will be mostly dry with seasonable high temperatures from
the mid 70s near LOW to low 80s in southeast ND along with some
developing afternoon Cu. There is a slight chance of some widely
scattered showers this afternoon in the southern Red River Valley
into west-central Minnesota as a weak surface trough tries to
utilize the limited instability expected to be in place on the
order of 500-750 J/kg. Limited instability will keep thunderstorm
chances low, although a few lightning strikes can't be ruled out
should convection ensue. A northwest breeze to 20 mph will also
develop in the afternoon, perhaps a bit higher within eastern
North Dakota outside of the Valley. Tonight will be calm and dry
as surface high pressure builds into the area allowing temps to
dip into the mid-upper 40s near LOW to mid 50s in southeast ND.

Monday will be pleasant with dry conditions and light winds
expected under the continued influence of surface high pressure
and rising heights aloft downstream of a large upper ridge
developing in the western CONUS/CAN. Monday's high temps will be
similar to slightly warmer than Sunday's ranging from the mid 70s
to mid 80s, warmest near central ND.

.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Saturday)
Issued at 313 AM CDT Sun Aug 16 2020

Low impacts expected in the extended time frame with model
guidance/ensembles indicating low spread or high confidence as NW
flow aloft persists for the period. Will see chance for showers and
storms return to the area towards the end of the work week as NW
flow flattens some with less amplified flow as western CONUS ridging
weakens. Timing and coverage of shortwave induced precip chances
will be monitored with the current forecast depicting Thursday as
the next best chance for convection.

Above mid August normal temps are expected Tuesday to Thursday with
afternoon highs in the mid 80s with lows around 60. In the wake of
the shortwave Thursday weekend temps will be cooler with mid 70s for
highs and lows in the low 50s.

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Monday morning)
Issued at 640 AM CDT Sun Aug 16 2020

VFR conditions are expected throughout the TAF period. Mid level
altostratus deck around 100 should exit east deeper into Minnesota
by afternoon. Afternoon Cu around 050 is expected through 00 UTC. Dry
air mass in place should largely prevent precip development,
although there is a slight chance for showers near KFAR this
afternoon as a weak surface trough moves through. This trough is
not expected to bring much of a wind shift, though winds are
expected to build 10-15 kt out of the northwest this afternoon,
possibly gusting to 20 kt at KDVL before 01 UTC.
