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.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 26, 5:34 AM CST, 4 hours 46 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Little Rock AR 534 AM CST Fri Feb 26 2021 .AVIATION...Updated w/ a discussion for the 26/12Z TAFs Widespread -RA w/ some TS was noted over the Srn half of the state early Fri morning. -RA will cont to impact Cntrl and Srn terminals through the morning, and taper off from the N/W to S/E early Fri afternoon. Most notably in the PD, IFR CIGs will prevail, eventually overtaking the fcst area and impacting all terminals. VIS restrictions and patchy fog will persist alongside low CIGs following the end of lingering SHRA, and Nrn terminals are anticipated to see an improvement near the end of the PD. /232/ && .PREV DISCUSSION...(ISSUED 247 AM CST Fri Feb 26 2021) SHORT TERM...Today Through Saturday Night Current radar mosaic imgry depicted moderate rainfall ongoing over the Srn portion of the state this AM, and some embedded stronger updrafts producing locally heavier rainfall and lightning. QPE around the fcst area was showing widespread readings of 1/2" to 1" w/ some localized amounts >1". WV imgry depicted an upper shortwave located over OK, beginning to eject across the fcst area. This feature in conjunction w/ a LLJ of 30-40 kts and a sfc stationary frnt draped across Srn AR/Nrn LA, will lkly cont to drive widespread steady rainfall across the region through the morning hours of Fri. As rainfall cont through the overnight PD, antecedent soil saturation will start to play a role in the evolution of FFG values. 1 hr and 3 hr FFG values are remaining manageable at issuance of this fcst, w/ current QPF guidance not indicating any major compromises. However, Thurs night/Fri morning rainfall totals will setup a "primed" region for increasing flash flooding risk in the next few days w/ more rainfall anticipated. Through the remainder of Fri, the aforementioned sfc bndry will remain stalled over the AR/LA border region, and is the focus for the highest Chc PoPs, which will eventually tail off over the N/W portion of the state. Sat...H500 flow progs depict a broader troughing pattern digging into the Cont Divide, w/ a smaller and more transient perturbation meandering through the trof basin. At the sfc, the associated low- lvl mass response will lkly develop over the Cntrl high plains w/ sfc cyclonic flow intensifying across the region. As such, a strengthening sfc pres grad will allow for Srly winds to return and a regime of WAA will ensue. The meandering stationary frnt will finally acquire some gusto and begin to lift N/wrd, and the associated moisture flux invof isentropic ascent/WAA will allow for Chc PoPs to resume across the state, w/ some potential for convective activity as well, particularly over the Nrn portion of the state. The caveat here is that once again, elevated buoyancy...MUCAPE ~ 500 J/kg...will be in place atop a cooler and more stable sfc bndry layer, and lkly inhibit sfc based storm development, keeping any widespread severe activity at bay. The location of the greatest QPF...e.g. another 1" to 1-1/2"...from this next system is progged over Nrn AR, due in part to the sfc bndry finally lifting N/wrd, and should help in allowing for some recovery of FFG values over Srn AR where prior rainfall will have occurred. LONG TERM...Sunday Through Thursday My overall thinking hasn't changed much. Upper flow will largely remain southwesterly or zonal. Surface boundary will be meandering around the region. With a deep Pacific fetch of moisture and several waves moving through and interacting with the boundary, expect a continued chance for showers and a few thunderstorms. Not surprisingly, with this pattern, we will see an increased likelihood of locally heavy rainfall, particularly over central and southern Arkansas. As tends to be the case with this pattern, storms will form and move over the same areas, and taking this into account along with soil moisture from heavy snowfall this month, this will create and sustain flash flooding potential. As I stated yesterday, we still don't have a great handle on expected rainfall amounts this far out, but it's something to keep an eye on. && .LZK Watches/Warnings/Advisories...NONE. && Aviation...GREEN

Widespread rainfall accumulations of one inch to one and a half inches with some localized amounts exceeding two inches will be possible by Friday night, particularly over the southern half of Arkansas. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday Through Thursday Rain chances will continue this weekend and into next week, as several systems bring periods of showers and a few thunderstorms to the state. At this time, the threat of strong storms is low during this period. However, there will be an increased threat for heavy precipitation, with several inches of rain possible. Details regarding the placement and extent of this heavy rainfall threat remains uncertain this far out in time.
