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 Tulsa, OK wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 2, 6:27 AM CDT, 1 hour 54 minutes earlier.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tulsa OK
627 AM CDT Mon May 2 2022
...New AVIATION...
.SHORT TERM...
(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 330 AM CDT Mon May 2 2022
Widespread showers and storms spreading into the forecast area
early this morning will continue eastward with precip coverage
tapering off from west to east through the morning. The corridor
of heavier and more widespread precip across N TX through SE OK
is generally south of most all guidance. This raises uncertainty
on guidance depiction of the warm frontal advance through the
first part of the day, however the moisture quality currently in
place south of the warm front does raise confidence in a corridor
of rapid warm sector recovery by late afternoon.
Any storms that can develop in vicinity of the lifting warm front
through the afternoon would pose a severe weather risk. This
corridor is likely to extend across E Central OK through western
AR. A more focused area of forcing will develop over N Central OK
/ Southern KS immediately east of a sharpening dryline. Scattered
storms are probable by late afternoon in this vicinity within a
strongly unstable and highly sheared environment. All modes of
severe weather would accompany these initial storms with a window
for significant severe weather possibly spreading into northeast
OK. Forecast soundings suggest multiple vertical zones of rather
weak storm relative winds which may limit duration of sustained
cells, and when coupled with an expected surging cold front by
early evening, a transition toward more linear storm mode is
likely. While this mode may lessen the tornadic potential,
orientation of the passing mid level jet suggests a window for
significant straight line wind potential primarily across NE OK
and possibly into far NW AR. The front will make quick progress
southeastward through the evening and eventually a more elevated
convective line is likely with a lessening severe potential.
Heavy rainfall will remain a concern through tonight. The ongoing
coverage and placement of the early morning rains raises concerns
on the near term placement of heaviest totals, however a good
signal for hvy rains continues through tonight. A flood watch has
been issued accordingly.
&&
.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday through Sunday)
Issued at 330 AM CDT Mon May 2 2022
Tuesday remains forecast as a lull in convective potential. The
next strong wave currently moving ashore the Pacific NW is
forecast to track into the Four Corners region by Wednesday
morning and pass through the Plains by late Thursday. Warm front
returns northward into the forecast area early Wednesday marking
and uptick in thunderstorm chances. The system warm sector
develops quickly northward with storms developing west of the forecast
area by Wednesday afternoon and spreading east with increasing
coverage through Wednesday night. An unstable and strongly sheared
warm sector is expected and severe weather is again likely
through Wednesday night. Heavy rainfall is also likely and the
combined influence from Monday's event will likely lead to at
least localized flooding concerns. Precip chances taper off from
west to east Thursday as the upper wave passes with dry weather
likely Friday through Saturday. A highly amplified flow pattern is
shown to develop by early next week with deep troughing
persistent across the western states. This pattern evolution
carries considerable uncertainty however similar patterns often
lead to multiple days of showers and storms.

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 627 AM CDT Mon May 2 2022
TSRA will impact all sites through late morning, with additional
development possibly impacting the NW AR sites after between 22z-00z.
While MVFR cigs are likely in thunder, VFR cigs will lower to MVFR categories,
by early afternoon. Focus for additional storms will come after
00Z at the NE OK sites along an approaching cold front, and clearing
KFSM by 08z. Sfc winds will shift to the W-NW upon frontal passage.

AREA AT GREATEST RISK...Northeast Oklahoma and Far Northwest Arkansas. FLASH FLOOD. RISK...Limited. AREA...Northeast Oklahoma and Far Northwest Arkansas. ONSET...Primarily Tonight. DISCUSSION... Numerous thunderstorms are ongoing early this morning across eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. These storms will pose a limited risk of severe weather along with locally heavy rainfall. Thunderstorm coverage will diminish by early afternoon with scattered storms possibly intensifying across east central Oklahoma into west central Arkansas by mid afternoon. Should the mid afternoon storms develop in vicinity of the advancing warm front then severe weather would be possible. Focus will turn toward north central Oklahoma and southern Kansas by late afternoon. Scattered supercells are likely to develop and track eastward with a risk of significant severe weather. The storms are likely to expanding in coverage and become aligned along an advancing cold front by early evening. These storms will pose an increasing risk of damaging straight line winds as they spread southeastward with the cold front. The risk of severe weather will lessen after midnight as the front pushes into southeast Oklahoma and west central Arkansas. Locally heavy rainfall this morning will allow any additional rainfall overnight to increase the risk of flash flooding. Far northeast Oklahoma and far northwest Arkansas appear most prone to the heaviest rainfall totals. SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT... Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Expected. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday. TUESDAY...Thunderstorm Potential. WEDNESDAY...Severe Thunderstorm and Heavy Rain Potential. THURSDAY...Thunderstorm Potential. FRIDAY...No Hazards. SATURDAY and SUNDAY...High Wind Potential. EXTENDED DISCUSSION... Thunderstorm chances will diminish early Tuesday with the next storm system impacting the area on Wednesday. Storms will increase early Wednesday with a limited risk of severe weather. Conditions will become increasingly unstable and favorable for severe weather during the day Wednesday. Storms which initially develop west of the region Wednesday afternoon will spread eastward overnight with a risk of severe weather and flash flooding. Storm chances lessen on Thursday with dry weather expected over the weekend. weather.gov/tulsa contains additional information.
