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 North Platte, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jul 5, 3:46 PM CDT, 2 hours 45 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 5, 3:46 PM CDT, 2 hours 45 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service North Platte NE
346 PM CDT Sun Jul 5 2020

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday night)
Issued at 345 PM CDT Sun Jul 5 2020

A cold front moving across the northern Plains will help to
initiate thunderstorms across North Dakota this evening. Storms are
expected to slowly move southward through the evening. However,
current observations as well as model forecasts indicate plenty of
dry air, sufficient CIN (greater than 60 J/kg), and a well mixed
boundary layer across much of north central Nebraska. As storms
encounter this environment, they will struggle to survive and are
expected to dissipate. Best chance for any locations to see
thunderstorms will be across the eastern Panhandle and Pine Ridge
region where slightly better instability exists. Here, storms may be
capable of producing brief gusty winds and large hail, however,
storms are anticipated to be short lived.

Dry weather returns for the remainder of tonight and into Monday
morning before another round of thunderstorms are possible late
Monday afternoon through the evening. The cold front will continue
to be located across North Dakota and will slowly move into northern
Nebraska. Better moisture and instability will be present across the
region for Monday evening (compared to tonight) which will help to
support strong to isolated severe storms. Best locations to see
thunderstorms will be north of Highway 2. Will support SPC's outlook
of marginal severe storms due to the enhanced instability and
frontal passage for Monday afternoon and evening. Uncertainty
still exists on timing of thunderstorm development, however, best
times appear to be between 5pm CDT and 2am CDT.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday)
Issued at 345 PM CDT Sun Jul 5 2020

For the extended, near daily afternoon and thunderstorm chances
exist across the region as a series of shortwaves help to trigger
thunderstorm initiation. There is still plenty of uncertainty in
where thunderstorms will develop and how strong and widespread they
will be. Will keep the low chance pops (near 30%) for now through
the end of the week. As we get a better handle on the environment
heading into next week adjustments will likely be made to
precipitation potential.

Plenty of warm air advection into the region will keep surface
temperatures in the 90s through the end of next week. The warmest
temperatures will be across western and southwest Nebraska (mid 90s
to low 100s) where the strongest warm air surge is expected.
Elsewhere, temperatures remain in the low to mid 90s. While highs
and resulting heat indicies have dropped slightly from the previous
forecast, heat indices will still be close to reaching heat advisory
criteria especially on Wednesday. Will need to monitor this closely
over the next couple days.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon)
Issued at 1233 PM CDT Sun Jul 5 2020

VFR conditions will continue through the forecast period. Winds
will shift across northern Nebraska from the southeast to the
southwest this evening. Then winds will shift to the west
northwest towards morning. There is a chance of thunderstorms this
evening, but they should mainly stay west of KVTN and KLBF.

.LBF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
