   1155 PM CST Wed Feb 14 2018

   Valid 151200Z - 161200Z

   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Isolated thunderstorms will be possible across the Ohio Valley late
   this afternoon into this evening.

   ...DISCUSSION...
   West to southwest mid-level flow will remain across much of the
   CONUS today. At the surface, a moist airmass will be in place across
   the Gulf Coast region extending northward into the mid Mississippi
   and Ohio Valleys. A cold front will advance southeastward across the
   Great Lakes region and mid Mississippi Valley. Low-topped
   thunderstorm development will be possible along or just ahead of the
   front but instability should remain very weak. For this reason, a
   severe threat is not expected. Elsewhere across the CONUS,
   thunderstorm development is not forecast across through tonight.
