   Valid 130100Z - 131200Z

   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   The risk of severe storms appears negligible across the U.S.
   tonight.

   ...01Z Outlook Update...

   Across the Pacific Northwest, weak destabilization has been
   sufficient to support scattered late afternoon thunderstorms
   near/just west of the southern Washington/ northern Oregon Cascades.
   Orographic forcing for ascent contributing to convective development
   has been enhanced by large-scale lift associated with an inland
   migrating short wave impulse.  As the latter forcing shifts east of
   the Cascades and boundary layer cooling commences, the risk for
   additional thunderstorm activity may become increasingly negligible
   by 02-03Z.

   Elsewhere, areas of scattered weak thunderstorm development across
   parts of the Southeast are already in the process of diminishing
   with the loss of daytime heating.  However, elevated moisture return
   to a zone of strengthening lower/mid tropospheric warm advection
   could contribute to increasing thunderstorm probabilities overnight
   (particularly toward the 09-12Z time frame) across parts of
   central/eastern Nebraska and adjacent portions of the mid Missouri
   Valley.
