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 Apr 29, 7:13 PM CDT, 2 hours 37 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 29, 7:13 PM CDT, 2 hours 37 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Grand Forks ND
713 PM CDT Fri Apr 29 2022
.UPDATE...
Issued at 707 PM CDT Fri Apr 29 2022
Area of rain moving north through the area early this evening.
Overall trends are for northeastern SD into southeastern ND to see
a diminishing trend as streadiest rains are from Bismarck area
into NE ND with another area lifting north from Ada to Thief River
Falls. Rainfall the past 12 hours has been highest in the James
Rive valley, mostly from earlier today with convection, but a
widespread 0.50 to 1 inch in the mid RRV to Devils Lake basin to
Valley City. Will see continued rain overnight, but will see if
drier area in NE SD advances more north or stays in that area.
Also will see how new convection thru the night in Nebraska
affects moisture feed into our region.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday night)
Issued at 329 PM CDT Fri Apr 29 2022
Main concern through Saturday night will be the threat for
overland and exacerbated riverine flooding from an expected long
duration moderate rainfall event. Impacts expected from overland
and riverine flooding mainly are tied to additional road closures,
flooding of unprotected low lying structures, and some impacts to area
reservoirs.
Widespread rainfall is a result of a slow moving upper trough and
assoc sfc low will move through the Central Plains into mid-
Mississippi Valley through the weekend. Widespread rainfall is
already revealing itself with an inverted trof setting itself up
within the eastern Dakotas. This feature is expected to focus
steadiest rainfall, with still some uncertainty of where it will
reside the longest. Morning hi-res guidance indicates a high
likelihood (90%) of at least 1 inch amounts through Sunday.
Incorporating the latest CAMS, the NBM has shown this increase in
forecast amounts, now revealing around 50% chance of seeing 2-3
inches within all of eastern North Dakota into the Minnesota Red
River Valley. Again the higher amounts will be dependent on the
inverted trof's placement, but it looks like this feature will
reside within the CWA for an extended period of time.
Rainfall rates are generally expected to remain in the 0.2 - 0.4
inch per hour, which decreases the potential to see sudden onset
of flash flooding. However these rates over a 12 hour period over
any one location brings the potential to see overland flooding
redevelop across the region, especially with saturated soils
already in place. It is worth noting that efficient rainfall
processes are expected through higher freezing levels, weak
instability, and continued forcing for ascent.
Rainfall will begin to diminish in coverage and intensity on
Sunday.
This will also impact currently high river water levels. More
details on riverine and overland flooding details are within the
Hydro section of this AFD.
.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Friday)
Issued at 329 PM CDT Fri Apr 29 2022
Below average temps persist during most of the extended period,
with scant chances for any rainfall that might be deemed
impactful.
High pressure will move in Sun night into Mon in the wake of the
weekend rain maker. Below average temps will still be the rule for
Mon and Tue, but it will be dry. Beyond then, another event is
possible during the middle of next week. Latest guidance indicates a
more likely southern track for this midweek system. There are very
low probs for even up to 0.25 inch QPF over our extreme south. Upper
high building over northern plains should have a lot to do with
suppressing upper low as it ejects from Central Rockies and takes
the more southern route.
For temps, still well below normal until the very end of the end of
the extended forecast period. 850 mb temps in the near 0C area will
gradually improve with time. The good news is that ECMWF and GEFS
ensemble probs indicate a sure bet of greater than 50 degree
max temps from Wed and beyond.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Saturday evening)
Issued at 707 PM CDT Fri Apr 29 2022
For most of the region IFR conditions expected either in ceilings
or visibilities through the pd. There will be times of MVFR

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 329 PM CDT Fri Apr 29 2022
River and overland flooding continues across much of the
basin due to recent snowmelt and heavy rainfall. River forecasts
incorporate forecast precipitation through 7 AM Saturday. This
weekend's rainfall will cause prolonged high water levels,
with potentially additional rises in water levels. River forecasts
will continue to vary as more forecast and observed precipitation
is incorporated into the river forecast.
Red River mainstem...
Moderate to major flooding is ongoing or anticipated at Grand Forks
and areas downstream. East Grand Forks has crested, and Oslo is
cresting within major flood stage. Downstream at Drayton and
Pembina, major flooding is still forecast starting early next week,
with Pembina's crest still beyond the seven day forecast window.
Precipitation over this weekend and potentially next week
continues to lower confidence in crest timing and values at
Drayton and Pembina, with crests potentially becoming higher and
later than currently forecast.
Little to minor river flooding is currently ongoing at Fargo and
points upstream. Future precipitation will prolong high water levels
and potentially cause additional rises in water levels.
Minnesota tributaries...
Most tributaries farther away from the mainstem Red River within
northwest Minnesota have already crested, but remain high in water
levels as the flood wave exits towards Red River. Points closer to
the Red River are seeing crests or prolonged high water as local
basin flood waves move through and/or backwater from the mainstem
Red River prolongs high water. Minnesota tributaries within the
southern Valley are seeing little to minor flooding, with the more
significant flooding staying within the central and northern
Valley.
Future precipitation will prolong high water levels and
potentially cause additional rises in water levels.
North Dakota tributaries...
Similar to Minnesota tributaries, many tributaries farther away from
the mainstem Red River within eastern North Dakota have already
crested, but remain high in water levels as the flood wave exits
towards the Red River. Points closer to the Red River are seeing
crests or prolonged high water as local basin flood waves move
through and/or backwater from the mainstem Red River prolongs high
water. Notable tributaries that are seeing prolonged moderate to
major flooding include the Pembina and Sheyenne rivers.
The Sheyenne River will see slow rises into next week as water
release operations continue at Baldhill Dam upstream of Valley City.
All forecast points along the Sheyenne are expected to reach into at
least moderate flood stage. Currently, points at Valley City and
West Fargo are forecast to reach major flooding next week. Crests
are expected to occur beyond the current seven day river forecast
window downstream of Valley City.
Future precipitation will prolong high water levels and potentially
cause additional rises in water levels.
Overland flooding...
Widespread overland flooding as a result of last week's rainfall has
begun to diminish as water moves into nearby tributaries/rivers
as well as infiltrate into the ground. However, overland flooding
still remains impactful mainly within the northern half of the
Valley from around Grand Forks County to the international border.
Future precipitation reintroduces the chance for additional
overland flooding, especially within eastern ND and within the
RRV.
Upcoming weather and impact to river levels...
Between Friday and Sunday, confidence is high that the majority of
the area will see at least 1 inch of widespread rainfall. Chances
for 2-3 inches have increased to 50% for eastern North Dakota and
the Red River Valley. The additional rainfall will prolong
flooding or delay crests, as well as reintroduce risk for overland
flooding. Expect adjustments to river forecasts as forecasted and
observed precipitation is incorporated into the models.
