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 Sioux Falls, SD wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Mar 8, 6:42 AM CDT, 10 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 8, 6:42 AM CDT, 10 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD 642 AM CDT Sun Mar 8 2020 .SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight) Issued at 304 AM CDT Sun Mar 8 2020 An impressive upper level ridge will linger over the area for one more day, keeping temperatures 20 to 25 degrees above normal. Afternoon highs will be near 70 along the Missouri River corridor, with 60s elsewhere. Along with the warm temperatures will come excellent boundary layer mixing, so expect some 20 to 30 mph southerly gusts during the afternoon. Rapid snow and ice melt north of I-90 will continue, with additional rises on area streams and rivers possible. Dry air will again move into the region, but due to rising dew points, daytime minimum relative humidities look to remain in the 30 to 40 percent range. Nevertheless, weather conditions will be more favorable than normal for rapid growth of any dead vegetation fires this afternoon. A shortwave trough will move through the flow aloft this evening into the overnight hours, with an attendant surface cold front causing temperatures to cool near freezing. The air mass behind this front is not overly cold, but will feel like a notable change after the incredible warmth of recent. .LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday) Issued at 304 AM CDT Sun Mar 8 2020 During the morning hours Monday, a surface low pressure moving northeast from Kansas into Iowa will direct moisture into portions of northeast Iowa. Over the past 24 hours, forecast models have positioned the TROWAL further to the southeast, decreasing rain amounts in northwest Iowa. Locations such as Sioux City and Storm Lake Iowa could still see a tenth of an inch of rain, with even lesser amounts as one heads to the northwest. Any accumulating precipitation is likely to be rain. This system exits the area by Monday evening. Flow aloft transitions to a zonal pattern for Tuesday, with high temperatures remaining quite mild. Highs will be in the 40s for most, with some low 50s along the Missouri River. Another quickly moving shortwave will bring light rain and snow. Snow amounts are likely to be less than an inch and focused east of I-29. Wednesday through Friday looks to be mild and mostly dry, with highs continuing to run about 10 degrees above normal.
