   Valid 301200Z - 311200Z

   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Isolated thunderstorms will be possible across portions of the
   Desert Southwest Monday night. A couple thunderstorms will also be
   possible along the Texas Gulf Coast towards daybreak Tuesday.

   ...Desert Southwest...
   A compact mid/upper shortwave trough will advance eastward along the
   Mexican border today, likely reaching the Arizona/New Mexico border
   Monday night. Ahead of this impulse, ascent should cool/moisten the
   700-500mb layer sufficiently for the development of weak buoyancy.
   Forecast soundings indicate an adequate depth for charge separation,
   suggesting isolated thunderstorms will be possible from eastern
   Arizona to far western Texas during the overnight hours.

   ...Texas Gulf Coast...
   Along the western periphery of a surface ridge centered over the
   northern Gulf, light southerly flow will bring increasing low-level
   moisture to the western Gulf Coast today. Late Monday night, a weak
   mid-level impulse (currently observed over northern Mexico in
   water-vapor imagery) will pivot across south Texas. The combination
   of weak large-scale ascent from this impulse and low-level
   confluence within a pre-frontal warm-advection regime may be
   sufficient for a few thunderstorms towards daybreak Tuesday.
