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 Jun 17, 6:46 PM CDT, 55 minutes earlier.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)

thunderstorms are expected to approach the area from the west
Sunday morning with reduced ceilings and visbys expected. /13

NEAR TERM...
(Now through Sunday)
Issued at 402 PM CDT Sat Jun 17 2023

The ongoing severe thunderstorms across the southern portions of the
area, with hail up to baseball size and damaging winds, will
continue to move south toward and off the coast through late
afternoon/early evening. A lull in convection looks to be short-
lived however in the wake of this shortwave as yet another fairly
potent shortwave trough looks to cross the Lower MS Valley late
tonight, potentially bringing another MCS with it across the state
of MS. Will need to watch our CWA for the potential arrival of this
MCS into the far northwest portion of our forecast area very late
tonight or early Sunday morning. Even so, a very unstable airmass
will remain in place over our forecast area Sunday afternoon and
evening, with additional transient impulses bringing the potential
for organized intense convection to spread across our forecast area
Sunday afternoon and evening given strong instability and favorable
deep layer shear. The potential exists for bowing segments capable
of producing damaging winds in excess of 70 mph to spread across our
area along with instances of large hail up to baseball size. The SPC
Day 2 outlook brings an Enhanced Risk of severe weather into our
southeast MS and southwest AL counties on Sunday, where shear and
instability overlap will be most favorable for severe weather.

Flooding concerns will also continue across our forecast area
through the weekend. Many locations remain saturated from heavy
rains over the past several days. Additional rounds of storms will
remain capable of producing torrential downpours with potential for
2-4" of rain with locally higher totals to fall in a short period of
time. Given that some of the high resolution CAMs show potential for
excessive rainfall across portions of our CWA, a Flood Watch remains
in effect for our entire forecast area through the weekend. High
dewpoints will result in increased heat indices outside of storms,
with maximum values up to around 105 degrees in the vicinity of
southeast MS and far southwest AL on Sunday. A HIGH risk of rip
currents will continue along area beaches through early next week.
/22

SHORT TERM...
(Sunday night through Tuesday night)
Issued at 402 PM CDT Sat Jun 17 2023

An upper low that has organized over Kentucky meanders south to
over the Southeast by Wednesday morning. With an upper high
located over the Tx/Mexico border, strong northwest to northerly
upper level flow continues over the Lower Mississippi River Valley
and western half of the Southeast. A surface ridge stretching
west over the central/southern Gulf of Mexico will continue to
push Gulf moisture inland, with precipitable h20 values in the
1.7"-2.1" through the Short Term. Daily showers and thunderstorms
moving southeast across the forecast area will help to maintain a
surface boundary stretching southeast across the forecast area,
providing the focus for the next day's convection initiation. This
boundary will shift southwest through the Short Term as the upper
low approaches. Guidance is advertising MLCapes rising into the
3000-4000J/kg range each day, more than enough for severe storms.
Wind shear does see a bit of a downward trend in the Short Term,
with Bulk Shear in the 30-40kts. Guidance is advertising the
higher mid level lapse rates present over the forecast area the
last couple of days shifting southwest, with the highest values,
and best chance of hail, being over the southwestern quarter of
the forecast area and southwest. DCapes in the 900- 1200J/kg
accompany the higher instability levels. Overall, daily strong to
damaging winds remain possible into the coming week, with
marginally large hail, remain possible. Water issues are also a
possiblity, with training cells, especially along the stalled
surface boundary.

Low temperatures see a downward trend as the stalled surface
boundary shifts southwest. Low temperatures in the low to mid 60s
Sunday night drop into the upper 60s northeast of a Waynesboro to
Crestview line, around 70 to low 70s south Tuesday night. High
temperatures also see a downward trend, from the upper 80s to around
95 Monday to mid 80s to low 90s Tuesday. Heat Indices see a drop
with the high temperatures, from around 100-107 over the
southwestern half of the forecast area, to around 100 over the same
area. The northeastern half of the forecast area sees Heat Indices
topping out in the 90s.
/16

LONG TERM...
(Wednesday through Saturday)
Issued at 402 PM CDT Sat Jun 17 2023

Guidance is advertising the upper low over the eastern Southeast
meandering around before either moving west (GFS and GEFS) or
meandering east(ECMWF or ECMWF ensembles). All are advertising the
upper low opening through the Extended, but still bringing above
normal PoPs. The decrease in upper subsidence over the area and
better than seasonal chance of rain will keep daytime temperatures
around to below seasonal norms through the period.
/16

MARINE...
Issued at 402 PM CDT Sat Jun 17 2023

A light to moderate westerly to southwesterly flow will
persist into the middle to next week, and cautionary headlines may
be required at times. Additionally, expect locally higher winds and
seas in and around any convective development over the local waters.
