JAMWhat 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 La Crosse, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Mar 31, 6:50 PM CDT, 1 hour 56 minutes earlier.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service La Crosse WI
650 PM CDT Fri Mar 31 2023
.DISCUSSION...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 259 PM CDT Fri Mar 31 2023
Key Messages:
- Possibility for severe storms continues through the rest of the
afternoon into the early evening along and south of the nearly
stationary warm front across northeast Iowa into southwest
Wisconsin.
- Colder air coming in behind the surface low expected to change
the rain over to snow, especially across southeast Minnesota
into north-central Wisconsin. Rates of 2" an hour possible
overnight, especially for north-central Wisconsin will allow
the snow to pile up quickly. Raised forecast snow totals a
little based on this. Winds also a concern for blowing and
drifting, but heavy, wet nature of the snow should preclude too
many problems from this so not seeing enough to upgrade to a
blizzard warning.
- Another system for the first part of next week could bring
another round of spring weather including snow, rain and maybe
severe storms.
Late This Afternoon Into Tonight...
The severe threat for late this afternoon into early evening
looks to be primarily confined to northeast Iowa into southwest
Wisconsin. As the surface low moves across northern Iowa, the warm
front looks to get pinned by the ongoing rain to the north of it.
This should hold it pretty stationary across northeast Iowa and
southwest Wisconsin with the best instability and moisture
confined to the south it. Trends through the day from the hi-res
meso-scale models have been for convection to initiate along the
cold front over central Iowa and then lift rapidly to the
northeast and congeal into a line. Given this motion, the storms
will have a limited amount of time in the warm sector before
lifting over the warm front and becoming elevated. While the
storms reside in the warm sector, the main threats look to be
damaging winds and tornadoes. The possibility does exist that the
damaging winds could be intense with gusts of 70+ mph not out of
the question. The possibility of tornadoes looks to be a dual
threat depending on the storm mode. If any isolated supercells can
get going ahead of the line and the winds can back ahead of the
approaching surface low, then there will be the possibility that a
long tracked, intense tornado or two could form. Otherwise, given
the amount of low level shear, QLCS tornadoes look to be a
possibility with the line of storms itself. The severe threat
should diminish pretty quickly as the storms move across the warm
front, but a hail threat will continue as the storms become
elevated for about a county or two north of the boundary. Overall
timing looks to see activity moving into/developing over the area
before 4 pm and then rapidly moving east/northeast with the threat
ending between 7 and 8 pm.
The fun does not end though at that point as cold air plunges in
behind the surface low to starting turning the rain over to snow.
A nice band of mid-level frontogenesis will take shape on the
northwest side of the surface low to help set up a deformation
band of snow where rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour look likely.
The 31.12Z HREF has a nice signal for 2 inch per hour snowfall
rates into north-central Wisconsin (around 60%) after midnight
that then looks to dissipate before sunrise. This rapid movement
of the system will limit the residence time and work to keep the
snowfall amounts from getting too extreme. Another factor for
tonight are the winds on the back side of the surface low that
will occur in conjunction with the falling snow. Sustained speeds
should be in the 20 to 25 mph range with gusts increasing into the
35 to 45 mph range after midnight. This does present a concern
for blowing snow and whether blizzard conditions may occur.
Limiting the blowing snow potential will be the wet, heavy nature
of the snow and the HREF blizzard parameter is strongest to the
northwest of the area and really weakens overnight over the local
area. This is not to say that there won't be blowing snow that
could possibly produce some local whiteouts at times. Fortunately,
this will all be occurring overnight when travel will be at a
minimum, so no plans to upgrade the current winter storm warnings
to blizzard warnings. As for amounts, have raised these just a
smidge over the far northern parts of the area where amounts in
the neighborhood of 10 inches look possible across Taylor County.
With the heavy, wet nature of the snow and the amounts, some power
outages and tree damage could occur.
Monday - Wednesday...
The active early spring pattern looks to continue into next week
with another system expected for the first part of the week. A
system looks to move inland from the northern Pacific very late
this weekend and then work east across the central Rockies through
Monday night before lifting out to the northeast across the Upper
Midwest through Wednesday. Only taking a quick look at this
system today, but the latest medium range guidance all show a
closed low forming with this system over the Dakotas and Nebraska
that then lifts northeast with the long wave trough. The track of
the surface low looks to be near the western sections of the
forecast area, which gives some uncertainty to the anticipated
thermal structure. Given current patterns, the likelihood of
measurable precipitation looks to be extremely high for the entire
area. Some of this may fall as accumulating snow with the
probabilities for measurable snow highest (50 to 70%) from about
Instate 90 and north. Those probabilities go down into the 20 to
40% range for amounts up to 3 inches, however, there is still a
small signal (10 to 20%) for 6 inch amounts. Another factor to
consider is the possibility of severe weather in the warm sector.
The current CSU machine probabilities based off the GEFS, does
bring in a signal for severe storms for much of the area south of
Interstate 90 with much higher values from the southern part of
the area and south. The SPC day 5 outlook closely resembles where
the highest probabilities are from the CSU data and is just to the
south, for now.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Saturday evening)
Issued at 650 PM CDT Fri Mar 31 2023
A strong low pressure area over northeast Iowa will move northeast
toward Green Bay by midnight and Georgian Bay by Saturday
morning. The deformation band of precipitation in the wake of this
low pressure area will continue to produce precipitation into
Saturday morning. This precipitation will be rain this evening
and then transition to snow at KRST around midnight and KLSE
around 3 AM. Snowfall in KRST will be around 3 inches and up to an
inch at KLSE. Visibilities will be IFR/MVFR through the night.
Ceilings will be LIFR to MVFR through much of Saturday morning.
