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 Fort Worth, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 24, 6:04 AM CDT, 2 hours 27 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 24, 6:04 AM CDT, 2 hours 27 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Fort Worth TX 604 AM CDT Mon May 24 2021 ...New Short Term, Aviation... .SHORT TERM... /NEW/ Update: Aside from fine-tuning PoPs through the short term, few significant changes were made to the forecast with this update. Our upper low is drifting northward through Central Texas as of 6 AM and is contributing to the development of widespread showers and a few thunderstorms. MRMS QPE and rain gauges near Austin have recorded rainfall of 1-1.5" in under an hour with ongoing activity south of our forecast area. This is a harbinger of the efficient rainfall that should be able to occur up the I-35 corridor later today as the upper low continues to drift into North Texas with similar 1.7-1.9" PW values in place. This type of convection will certainly have the ability to result in minor flooding, and perhaps even an instance or two of flash flooding if south-north oriented cell training occurs. Wouldn't be surprised if an isolated total close to 3-4" occurred in the vicinity of the I-35 corridor. Otherwise, recent CAM guidance still depicts a decent chance for a storm complex to impinge on our western zones late tonight into early Tuesday, and have raised PoPs into the 30-40% range to address this potential for now. -Stalley Previous Discussion: /Through Monday Night/ An upper low that has been parked over the western Gulf of Mexico the past few days has finally been reabsorbed into the mid-latitude flow aloft and will progress northward up the I-35 corridor today. This will culminate in rather high rain chances for much of the CWA, with some heavy rainfall possible along the N-S oriented PW axis also centered near I-35. Am expecting numerous showers and isolated storms to increase over the next 6-10 hours and persist through this afternoon or early evening as the upper low and associated vorticity center move northward. With tropical-like moisture content still in place, some heavy rainfall is certainly possible, and training cells could conceivably produce isolated rain totals in the 2-3" range in a short time period. Flooding will therefore be the main concern today, but with steepening lapse rates ahead of the upper low, cannot rule out more robust convection that could also produce low-end hail/wind threats. Much like the past few days, some cells could display transient rotation simply due to the strong environmental vorticity that will be moving overhead. Most of the activity associated with the upper low should be exiting the area to the northeast sometime early this evening with perhaps some dry time towards the end of the day. Our attention will then turn to the west where an active dryline should have ignited another round of West Texas convection. With upper-level flow transitioning to a more zonal orientation in the wake of the upper low's departure, we'll have to keep an eye on the chance for decaying convection to be steered towards our western zones around midnight or after. There is low confidence in this scenario given the time frame is still 24-30 hours out, but this potential will need to be monitored through the day. -Stalley && .LONG TERM... /Issued 314 AM CDT Mon May 24 2021/ /Tuesday Onward/ Periods of showers and storms are likely to continue through the rest of the week and into the weekend. Overall, no single day will be a complete washout but temporary bouts of showers and storms may interrupt some outdoor activities. High temperatures will be in the lower to mid 80s much of the week, with the warmest day expected to be Thursday. Thursday will also be the day with no precipitation chances during the daytime hours. Mid and upper level southwesterly flow will continue to be in place as we go through much of the week. Compact, transient shortwaves will emerge off the higher terrain to our west and southwest, each supplying just enough forcing for ascent to develop showers and storms mainly across West Texas Tuesday and Wednesday along a dryline. The storm motion would push any convection toward our region, likely as a decaying complex of showers/storms. Regardless of whether the storms arrive or not, they should generate a cold pool that then pushes into our region. Sufficient surface convergence along with a steady stream of moisture should lead to scattered afternoon showers and storms wherever the boundaries set up. The convection-allowing models typically struggle in exact placement of remnant boundaries this far out, therefore, confidence remains low on coverage and location of afternoon showers and storms. Although the overall severe weather remains low, a few strong storms can't be ruled out Tuesday afternoon across Central Texas given the elevated instability. Deep layer shear will remain on the low side, keeping the threat of severe weather at bay. The main threats would likely be strong winds and small hail. A strengthening area of high pressure centered around Durango, Mexico will creep into our region on Thursday, leading to a dry day for all of North and Central Texas. The dry conditions will be short-lived as another round of showers and storms is possible Thursday night. Thursday's highs are likely to top out in the 80s, with a few lower 90s possible around Graham to Breckenridge. By the weekend, a pattern more typical of late May and early June will turn our attention to our west and northwest as nocturnal storm complexes roll across the Southern Plains. Most guidance is on board with the first round of convection developing late Thursday night somewhere from southern Kansas to the Texas Panhandle. Depending on where the convection actually develops, it is possible the our next round of storms arrives early Friday morning. A similar scenario is possible Saturday morning as a shortwave moves across Oklahoma. It is yet too early to highlight any potential impacts from the possible storm complexes moving through our area this weekend. For that reason, make sure to come back the next couple of days as we begin to get a clearer picture of the environment that will be in place. Hernandez && .AVIATION... /NEW/ /12z TAFs/ A northward-moving upper low in Central Texas is resulting in the development of showers and isolated thunderstorms which will continue spreading northward today. Abundant low-level moisture ahead of this feature is also resulting in expansive MVFR/IFR cigs which should continue to increase in coverage over the next few hours. While light rain has already spread into both the Waco and DFW areas, instability remains rather marginal this far north, and thunder will likely need to wait a few more hours until a steepening of lapse rates provides instability sufficient for TSRA near the TAF sites. Have delayed thunder timing a few hours from previous TAFs, but still expect several hours of heavy rain and lightning impacts to the airports beginning late this morning continuing through much of the afternoon. A break in precip activity is expected by this evening, perhaps after 23z or so when a window of VFR is possible. However, a return to MVFR cigs is expected later tonight into Tuesday morning. There is also a potential for West Texas convection to consolidate into a complex and push towards North Texas Tuesday morning, and will include some VCSH overnight to address this. This convection likely would not be very robust by the time it would reach any of the TAF sites. -Stalley && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... Dallas-Ft.
