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 St. Louis, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 5, 6:33 AM CDT, 3 hours 47 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 5, 6:33 AM CDT, 3 hours 47 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion...Updated Aviation
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
633 AM CDT Thu May 5 2022

.SHORT TERM...  (Through Late Friday Afternoon)
Issued at 314 AM CDT Thu May 5 2022

Through the morning showers and thunderstorms are expected to shift
eastward and weaken as the low-level jet and mid-level shortwave
shift eastward out of the forecast area. The warm front associated
with the approaching surface low will be moving northward during the
morning through southern Missouri, bringing slightly unstable air to
the far southern forecast area. As the low-level jet shifts eastward
into southeastern Missouri, the overlap of lift from the jet and the
warm front could be enough to generate a strong thunderstorm,
organized by the 50-55 kts of 0-6 km shear across this region.
Damaging winds will be the primary concern for any thunderstorms
that become strong to severe this morning.

A lull in precipitation is expected across most of the region this
afternoon through the evening hours in the wake of the shortwave.
During the day the mid-level trough will push eastward, mirrored at
the surface by the advance of the low. As the warm front continues
it's march northward, some instability is expected to build across
the southern half of the forecast area. The amount of instability
that will be able to build into the area is uncertain, ongoing
convection across southern Missouri and northern Arkansas may cut
the region off from quality instability and moisture. SREF guidance
is indicating 60-65 degree dewpoints and up to 500 J/kg of MUCAPE to
areas south of the I-70 corridor. The low will track across the
forecast area overnight Thursday into Friday, bringing showers and a
few thunderstorms back to the region. The scarce instability is the
limiting factor in thunderstorms becoming strong to severe, but I
cannot rule out a thunderstorm organizing in the 40-45 kts of 0-6 km
shear and minor instability across far southeast Missouri overnight
Thursday into Friday. Damaging winds will once again be the primary
hazard with any storms that become strong to severe.

Concerns for flooding remain low across the forecast area given the
breaks in precipitation expected, as well as the overall lack of
robust thunderstorm activity to provide long duration heavy
rainfall. Even so, if a few thunderstorms become strong to severe,
localized ponding and small stream flooding is possible across
isolated areas. The 1.00-1.50 inches of additional rain expected
from this system on top of relatively saturated soils will increase
the probability of minor flooding along some of the mainstem rivers
over the next couple of days.

The surface low will push out of the forecast area Friday morning,
though showers will linger across the area behind the low through
most of the day. Multiple chances of rain, heavy cloud cover, and
the position of the low track will help to keep temperatures
seasonally cool both today and tomorrow. Those of us who enjoy the
60 degree range should savor it, as a major pattern shift will take
place over the weekend.

MRM

.LONG TERM...  (Friday Night through Wednesday)
Issued at 314 AM CDT Thu May 5 2022

Rising heights aloft Friday evening in the wake of the departing mid-
level trough and the advance of a surface high into the region will
help clear precipitation out of the area during the evening and
overnight period Friday. The surface high will keep conditions dry
and cool on Saturday. Over the weekend a 500mb ridge will begin to
build into the mid-Mississippi Valley while across the western CONUS
a large trough will deepen. The resulting robust southwesterly flow
over the mid-Mississippi Valley will extend into the low-levels as
well as the surface high shifts east of the region, increasing warm
air advection into the region. By Sunday, temperatures will be near
to above normal for early May.

Southwesterly flow will continue in the low to mid-levels during the
first half of the work week, increasing warm air advection
dramatically, and pushing 850 mb temperatures into the low to mid
20s. These temperatures are near the climatological maximum for
this time of year, and will launch surface temperatures 20 degrees
above normal. High temperatures Monday through Wednesday have the
potential to break daily records (see Climate section below),
with highs pushing 90 across the region.

While shortwave disturbances will be able to slide into the mid-
Mississippi Valley along the southwesterly flow during the extended
period, the forecast area will be along the southeastern edge of the
500 jet. This will effectively keep showers and thunderstorms to the
north and west of the region, and the WPC cluster analysis is
indicating that the forecast area will remain dry at least through
Tuesday.

MRM

.AVIATION...  (For the 12z TAFs through 12z Friday Morning)
Issued at 627 AM CDT Thu May 5 2022

Rain and IFR conditions will continue at most terminals through
the morning. Sites that currently have VFR ceilings are expected
to drop to MVFR/IFR flight conditions over the course of the
morning. Rain will move out of the area during the afternoon, and
conditions will stay dry through a portion of the evening.
Visibilities will improve as rain moves out of individual
terminals but ceilings will stay IFR through the dry period.
Showers and perhaps a few thunderstorms will return to the region
overnight, any showers that move through individual terminals will
have the ability to reduce visibilities.

Winds will be largely southeast to easterly through the period,
near 10 kts.
