$$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 Mobile, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Aug 23, 11:29 PM CDT, 10 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 23, 11:29 PM CDT, 10 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mobile AL 1129 PM CDT Tue Aug 23 2022 .AVIATION... 06Z issuance...Mostly MVFR to VFR conditions across the area as light to occasionally moderate rain moves east of I-65 and eventually east of the area over the next few hours. Some IFR ceilings will likely develop across southeastern Mississippi and into interior southwestern Alabama overnight and obs across Mississippi show this area of lower stratus has already begun to settle in. Winds will be light out of the east to southeast throughout the period. By the morning, showers and storms will quickly develop across the area and overspread with MVFR ceilings and visbys. Some temporary reductions in visbys and ceilings will be possible during the mid-afternoon as some heavier thunderstorms will be possible. BB/03 && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 1024 PM CDT Tue Aug 23 2022/ NEAR TERM /Now Through Thursday/...Our latest official observation by stepping outside the office tells us that it is indeed raining and an obvious forecast is well obvious. We are expecting it to continue raining at least for the next couple of hours across the area and potentially into the morning hours so pack the umbrellas. Current radar has a rather large shield of light to moderate rain across the entire area with embedded areas of heavier rain. This complex of rain is currently associated with a subtle trough centered over the Louisiana/Mississippi border embedded within deeper southwesterly flow aloft. This wave is expected to slowly continue eastward throughout the night. We are currently nestled within the best area for vertical lift ahead of this feature, but as the night progresses the bulk of the lift will move eastward out of our area. Closer to the surface, a weak area of low pressure at 700 to 850 mb (just above the surface) was centered over northerly Louisiana and was expected to meander there for the foreseeable future. With us remaining on the eastern side of the low will keep low level flow out of the south pumping in deep rich tropical moisture into the area. Precipitable water levels (PWATS) based off of the 00 UTC balloon launch out of Slidell were as high as 2.48 inches which is above the 90th percentile of historical PWATs for today which means its a wee bit soggy outside even when its not raining. Given the bulk of the lift will be moving out of the area over the next couple of hours we do expect to see a down trend in rain and storms across the area later tonight but this is only temporary. Luckily we did not see much in the way of flooding out of this round and more of a steady ground soaking rain (not that we really needed this but we got it anyways). Some scattered shower and isolated heavier storms may still persist into the morning even in the wake of the upper system given the high moisture content and overall weak lift still lingering across the area. The next round of rain really doesn't arrive until tomorrow mid-morning and into tomorrow afternoon as the next system in the never ending mardi gras parade of troughs keeps rolling on through bringing another round of heavy rainfall. We will have more on that at a later issuance once we short out that part of the forecast. BB/03 && .MOB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... AL...None. FL...None. MS...None.
