The episode as NWS HUN wrote it up.

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 Huntsville, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 26, 1:41 PM CST, 3 hours 29 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Huntsville AL 241 PM CDT SUN JUN 26 2016 .DISCUSSION... Deep layer ridging over much of the region continues to dominate the overall synoptic pattern. A couple minor perturbations rotating around the eastern periphery of the ridge in the mid/upper level flow will help maintain some weak upper level support for scattered showers and thunderstorms through the beginning of the week. We'll finally see a break in the pattern as a trough digs through the Great Lakes Region and shifts a surface front across the eastern US. Behind the front, high pressure will reestablish by mid week with drier air advecting into the area. For the rest of today and tonight: At the surface at the moment, a weak and nearly stationary boundary is wedged across much of the TN Valley. Plenty of moisture and instability is again available this afternoon to support scattered showers and thunderstorms, with a couple storms potentially on the strong side. Theta E axis just south of the area matches up well with a couple area of convergence along the wedge front across the area helping to maintain and develop convection this afternoon. Given the current situation, will let the chance PoP wording (40-50 percent) ride through this evening. While most convection will be diminishing after sunset, anticipate a couple showers or a storm to linger along old outflow boundaries through midnight. With the help of some cloud cover, temps are on track to peak in the low/mid 90s with apparent temps in the upper 90s to low 100s. For tomorrow: models continue to depict a weak mid/upper level wave shifting again through the region. Once again, plenty of moisture and instability will be available to be tapped into with some upper level support as evident on model soundings. Expecting better thunderstorm coverage tomorrow compared to past couple of days and cannot rule out a severe thunderstorm or two developing during the late afternoon/early evening hours. For the rest of the period... frontal passage expected by late Tuesday with surface ridging building in behind. Drier and slightly cooler air will establish by mid week. The front itself is expected to stall south of area and lift back further north later towards the weekend, helping to increase rain chances. Barron && .AVIATION... (Issued 1238 PM CDT SUN JUN 26 2016) For 18Z TAFs: Expect that VCTS should occur at MSL by beginning of TAF forecast period and around 19z at HSV due to recent TSRA development trends. Will still continue with VFR conditions until around 08z at both TAF sites, when MVFR fog conditions are expected. Expect that VFR conditions should occur at both HSV and MSL after 13z with the fog dissipated. Winds should slowly increase out of the 230/250 degree range in advance of the cold front after 13z. Have introduced a PROB30 grouping for MSL after 15z and at HSV after 16z through the end of the forecast. TT && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
