The episode as NWS SGF wrote it up.
Isolated thunderstorms produced minor flash flooding in southeast Kansas.
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 Springfield, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 26, 5:30 AM CST, 3 hours earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 630 AM CDT Fri Jun 26 2015 .SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight) Issued at 303 AM CDT FRI JUN 26 2015 A stationary front remains draped near the I-70 corridor early this morning and continues to provide a focus storm development as a shortwave trough moves across eastern Kansas. Further to the west...another storm complex has developed over western Kansas ahead of another shortwave trough. These disturbances will help nudge the I-70 front south across the forecast area through the day. Will keep higher end precipitation chances going through the day. Temperatures may get a little warmer than previously expected along the AR/southeast KS borders. Otherwise will keep the lower to mid 80s going for max temperatures. Precipitation chances will decrease from northwest to southeast through the evening as the front and upper level disturbances shift southeast of the region. .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday) Issued at 303 AM CDT FRI JUN 26 2015 Much drier conditions are expected for Saturday as high pressure spreads southward from the upper Midwest. Temperatures and dewpoint temps should average around 10 degrees lower than todays values. From Sunday through the middle of the workweek...upper level northwest flow becomes well established...bringing continued cooler conditions. The latest models show a clipper system moving across the area on Sunday night and Monday. This will bring us a fairly quick shot of storms with the highest chances mainly northeast of Springfield. Another clipper system may impact the area around Wednesday/Thursday. Exact timing this far out on these type of systems is pretty tricky, so went with mainly slight chance to chance pops through midweek. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Saturday Morning) Issued at 630 AM CDT FRI JUN 26 2015 For the KSGF/KJLN/KBBG TAFS: Surface frontal boundary will continue to shift southward across the taf sites today. Convective complex will accompany the front through the morning hours, with perhaps some strengthening this afternoon in areas south of interstate 44. KJLN and KSGF will be affected through the morning hours, while KBBG will likely see convection from late morning through the afternoon. Timing all hinged on the movement and position of the front. Expect mainly VFR to MVFR ceilings this morning, with IFR conditions possible in any of the convective elements. For tonight, latest guidance hinting at the possibility of post frontal status developing as column cools. Did go ahead and mention some MVFR ceilings at both KSGF and KBBG after 06Z. Otherwise, convection looks to be south KBBG by early evening. && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MO...FLASH FLOOD WATCH until Noon CDT today FOR MOZ055>058.
