What happened

The episode as NWS GLD wrote it up.

An intense line of thunderstorms developed around midday in eastern Colorado and rolled east through the afternoon hours. The line of storms produced dozens of severe weather reports, including 3 tornadoes, flooding rainfall, and intense outflow winds of 70 to 90 mph. Minor damage to homes and significant tree and power line damage occurred, and numerous agricultural irrigation systems were overturned or damaged.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Goodland, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 16, 10:05 AM MST, 1 hour 40 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 16, 10:05 AM MST, 1 hour 40 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
1105 AM MDT FRI JUN 16 2006

.UPDATE...MAIN FORECAST UPDATE WAS TO ADD FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR
SOUTHEASTERN CWA THROUGH THE EVENING. COOP REPORTS AND RADAR
ESTIMATES INDICATE SWATH OF 1 TO 4 INCHES FELL ACROSS THIS AREA.
1 HOURLY FFG HAS FALLEN TO AROUND OF .5 TO 1.5 IN THIS AREA.
MORNING STORMS WHERE VERY EFFECTIVE RAIN PRODUCERS AND WITH VERY
MOIST SOUNDINGS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON...THIS WILL LIKELY
CONTINUE. POPS LOOK GOOD FOR NOW AS FORECAST REALLY HINGES ON HOW
MUCH WE CLEAR OUT AND HOW FAR FRONT MOVES. LOCAL OBS SHOWING FRONT
SLOWLY BEGINNING TO MOVE EAST SO WILL KEEP CURRENT IDEA OF HIGHEST
POPS IN THE SOUTHEAST.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... (ISSUED 215 AM MDT FRI JUN 16 2006)

DISCUSSION...FORECAST CONCERNS ARE ON FRONTAL POSITION AND ITS
IMPACT ON WHERE/WHEN/HOW MUCH PRECIPITATION FALLS THROUGH TONIGHT.
THE POTENTIAL DOES EXIST FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS THE EASTERN
1/3 OF COUNTIES WHERE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN HAS ALREADY FALLEN SINCE
THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH THIS MORNING.

TODAY/TONIGHT...UPPER TROUGH AXIS REMAINS TO OUR WEST WITH VARIOUS
DISTURBANCES AND INCREASES IN UPPER JET DIVERGENCE MOVING THROUGH
THE AREA FROM THE SOUTHWEST. HIGHEST POPS WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE
EASTERN 1/3 OF THE AREA WHERE SOUTHEAST WINDS AT 850 MB FEED
MOISTURE TOWARD THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. AFTER MIDNIGHT THE
PRECIPITATION AXIS SHOULD SLOWLY SHIFT EAST AS THE FRONT AND UPPER
SUPPORT SLOWLY PUSH TOWARD THE AREA. MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN IS A BIG
CONCERN GENERALLY EAST OF A LINE EXTENDING FROM MCCOOK NEBRASKA TO
COLBY AND TRIBUNE KANSAS. CURRENT QPF IN THE GRIDS HITS THESE AREAS
THE HARDEST. WILL AWAIT THE CO-OP RAINFALL REPORTS AND COMPARE THEM
TO RADAR ESTIMATED RAINFALL AND ALLOW DAYSHIFT TO POSSIBLY HOIST ANY
HYDRO PRODUCTS. I WILL MENTION HEAVY RAIN IN THE HWOGLD PRODUCT.
SEVERE WEATHER IS POSSIBLE AND THE COVERAGE OF IT WOULD DEPEND ON
WHETHER WE GET ANY SUNSHINE AND INCREASED INSTABILITY.

SATURDAY/SATURDAY NIGHT...FRONTAL BOUNDARY SLOWLY PUSHES THROUGH THE
AREA WITH UPPER TROUGH AXIS MOVING THROUGH AS WELL. THIS SHOULD
BRING AN END TO THE PRECIPITATION EXCEPT FOR THE FAR SOUTHEAST PART
OF THE AREA. WILL KEEP SOME SLIGHT CHANCE POPS. TEMPERATURES WILL
BEGIN TO WARM WITH READINGS IN THE MID 80S.

SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT...UPPER RIDGE AXIS BEGINS TO BUILD ACROSS THE
AREA WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS ON THE INCREASE AS LEE TROUGH DEVELOPS.
850 TEMPERATURES SUPPORT READINGS AROUND 90 WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS IN
THE LOW 60S. THERE IS A SHORTWAVE THAT DIVES OUT OF CANADA AND INTO
THE NORTHERN PLAINS/GREAT LAKES AREA. THE GFS SOLUTION BRINGS A
FRONT/WIND SHIFT INTO THE AREA WHILE THE NAM IS WEAKER WITH THE WAVE
AND DOESNT BRING ONE THROUGH. HAVE SIDED WITH THE GFS FOR NOW AND
KEPT CURRENT SILENT POPS IN TACT.

MONDAY...700-500RH AND 500 HEIGHTS FROM THE GFS SHOW A WEAK WAVE
ROUNDING THE TOP OF THE RIDGE AND MOVING INTO FAR EASTERN COLORADO
BY DAYS END. 700 TEMPERATURES ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO ARE IN THE
17-18C RANGE WITH CIN VALUES AROUND 20 OR SO. THIS SHOULD LIMIT ANY
PRECIPITATION CHANCES GREATLY. WILL KEEP THINGS DRY AT THIS POINT.
TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO WARM WITH AFTERNOON HIGHS IN THE MID 90S.

TUESDAY-THURSDAY...NO CHANGES MADE AT THIS TIME.
