The episode as NWS LSX wrote it up.
Strong surface low over southwest Missouri lifted northeast through the region. It triggered numerous showers and thunderstorms. A few of the storms produced damaging winds and flash flooding.
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 St. Louis, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 10, 11:00 PM CST, 1 hour 29 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO 1200 AM CDT Wed Jun 11 2014 .SHORT TERM: (Through Late Tonight) Issued at 343 PM CDT Tue Jun 10 2014 Showers and thunderstorms will continue across the area through this evening thanks primarily to a surface low over southwest Missouri which will lift northeast along the quasi-stationary frontal boundary, which extends from roughly KSGF-KSTL-KMTO. Some storms may be strong to severe, and while an isolated weak tornado or two cannot be ruled out, gusty wind, small hail, and very heavy rainfall are the primary threats. The aforementioned low is progged to gradually move northeast through this evening and tonight, and associated shower and thunderstorm activity should gradually diminish by late evening across much of the area. In the wake of the departing low, fog is expected to develop late tonight, with the possibility for dense fog for some locations, particularly those in valleys and those locations which receive additional rainfall from storms this evening. Low temperatures tonight are expected to be in the upper 50s over central and northeastern Missouri, and 60s elsewhere, with light and variable winds overnight gradually becoming northwesterly before daybreak. JP .LONG TERM: (Wednesday through Next Tuesday) Issued at 354 PM CDT Tue Jun 10 2014 Upper low/trof will be moving east with lingering cloud cover and showers during the morning hours, along and east of the Mississippi River, giving way to more sunshine during the afternoon. This will lead to some instability and a chance of thunderstorms redeveloping along and east of the river tomorrow afternoon. Temperatures will generally be in the middle to upper 70s, warmest across central Missouri. Surface high pressure should provide tranquil weather to the CWA Wednesday night. Focus turns to our northwest where low pressure will take shape across the northern Plains in response to a strong shortwave crossing the northern Rockies. Attendant cold front will quickly move southeast across the Midwest on Thursday provding another chance of thunderstorms to the CWA. NAM and ECWMF have signals in their forcing and QPF that the focus for thunderstorm development may ultimately end up being southwest of our CWA, but too early to discount chances of thunderstorms with a cold front in June. Canadian high pressure builds into the Midwest Thursday night and Friday with seasonably cool conditions and lower dewpoints. Truly spectacular weather to start the weekend. Unfortunately, it appears an active weather regime will setup next week, beginning on Sunday, with southwest flow aloft and a series of shortwaves interacting with a quasi-stationary boundary. Model forecast instability and shear suggest several rounds of strong to severe thunderstorms may be possible across the middle of the CONUS. CVKING && .AVIATION: (For the 06z TAFs through 06z Wednesday Night) Issued at 1157 PM CDT Tue Jun 10 2014 Rain has essentially diminished to a broken band on the northwest flank of the stacked low core path, and will probably be just to the east of UIN-COU overnight. Low clouds timing has been pushed back but believe will still make it...resulting in IFR eventually for all TAF sites. IFR CIGs will then persist into late morning before slow improvement to MVFR and transition to cumuliform cloud field occurs by early-mid afternoon. Some TSRA/SHRA possible Wednesday afternoon, but should see the bulk of what develops remain to the east of the MS river. Clearing skies then expected heading into Wednesday night as diurnally-based cloud that remains dissipates with the setting of the sun. Some fog expected Wednesday night, and have already placed in SUS TAF given its favorable position for radiational fog. Specifics for KSTL: IFR CIGs still expected to reach TAF but will be late. IFR will then improve late Wednesday morning to diurnally based MVFR cloud CIGs to then dissipate in the evening around or shortly after sunset. Another round of SHRA/TSRA possible Wednesday afternoon, but probs look minimal for the terminal at this time, with better chances to the east. TES && .LSX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES: MO...NONE.
