The episode as NWS ARX wrote it up.
Runoff from heavy rains in late October produced some isolated river flooding across Southeast Minnesota. Turtle Creek near Austin (Mower County) went out of its banks on October 26th and 27th.
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 La Crosse, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Oct 26, 5:30 AM CST, 3 hours 25 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service La Crosse WI 630 AM CDT Wed Oct 26 2016 .SHORT TERM...(Today through Thursday night) Issued at 207 AM CDT Wed Oct 26 2016 Much anticipated storm system/associated rainfall is upon us with the center of low pressure located along the NE/IA border. Latest radar based storm total rainfall estimate indicates anywhere from 1/2 to 2 inches has fallen across portions of northeast IA and southeast MN. Even had a 2.46 inch report at a UCOOP station near Austin MN. Thankfully rainfall spread out enough that it has not caused problems yet (based on earlier call out to law enforcement). Otherwise...generally a 1/10 to 1 inch so far for areas southwest of I-94 in Wisconsin to the Mississippi River....with up to 1/4 inch northeast of I-94. Continuing to monitor rainfall closely for any ponding/flooding problems. Latest mesoscale/wrf models indicate the heaviest rainfall is on us now with a slow diminishing trend expected through this morning after sunrise and then bulk of rain moved east of the area by late afternoon/early evening as the low slips east toward Chicago. Otherwise...clouds/rain will keep temperatures down in the 40s/lower 50s. Some lingering showers coming to an end this evening but model soundings show stratus will linger through the night in the wake of the low. Cold air advection will produce overnight lows in the middle/upper 30s. Stratus may be stubborn in getting out of here as high pressure slides southeast across the region and moisture stuck under the subsidence inversion. A diminishing trend is expected during the afternoon as south/southwest winds kick in on the backside of the high...thereby mixing out the boundary layer. Look for highs in the upper 40s/lower 50s across central WI to the middle 50s along and west of the Mississippi River. Warm air advection mid/high clouds expected to overspread the area Thursday night ahead of low pressure dropping into the Dakotas. Look for overnight lows in the upper 30s to the middle 40s. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Tuesday) Issued at 207 AM CDT Wed Oct 26 2016 A breezy day expected on Friday as that area of deep low pressure moves from the Dakotas toward Lake Superior. Warm air advection on gusty south/southwest winds expected to boost temperatures into the upper 50s across north central WI...to the middle/upper 60s elsewhere across the forecast area. Plan on south/southwest winds generally in the 15 to 25 mph range with gusts 30-40mph across the more open areas of southeast MN/northeast IA. A weak mid-level trough will ripple across a baroclinic zone across the area for a chance of showers Saturday afternoon. Otherwise... looks like temperatures remain above normal with highs topping off in the middle 50s to middle 60s. Looks like a nice Sunday as high pressure slides across the region with highs in the 50s. Rain chances return Monday as another low pressure system moves east out of the Northern Plains. Warm air advection ahead of this low looks to push temperatures well into the 60s. Back to near normal temperatures on Tuesday with highs in the 50s. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday morning) Issued at 630 AM CDT Wed Oct 26 2016 While heavy rain showers and thunderstorms have moved east of TAF airfields, expect scattered light showers to continue through the morning with little direct impact to aviation operations. However, low MVFR/IFR ceilings varying between 600 and 1500 ft agl will continue through the entire TAF period. Stronger easterly winds early this morning will slowly decrease through the day, shifting to the northwest overnight. && .HYDROLOGY...Today Issued at 207 AM CDT Wed Oct 26 2016 Pockets of heavy rainfall will continue into early this morning which is leading to some river rises along with the possibility of some minor flooding in urban areas. Rainfall of 1 to 2 inches is expected and there is the potential for a few locally higher amounts up to 3 inches. Widespread flooding is not expected. However...be alert for ponding of water in low spots/poor drainage areas. River rises may result in some action stage levels. But again, widespread flooding in not expected. && .ARX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WI...None. MN...None. IA...None. && SHORT TERM...DAS LONG TERM....DAS AVIATION...ROGERS HYDROLOGY....DAS
