   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   The risk for severe thunderstorms will be negligible across the U.S.
   today and tonight.

   ...DISCUSSION...
   An upper-level low will move slowly across the Four Corners region
   today as southwest mid-level flow remains in place across the
   southern and central Plains. At the surface, a cold front from the
   southern High Plains to the lower Missouri Valley will advance
   quickly southward. Weak to moderate instability is forecast to
   develop ahead of the front today. As surface temperatures warm and
   low-level convergence increases, thunderstorm development is
   expected from parts of the southern Plains northeastward to the
   southern Great Lakes. Most of the thunderstorm development should
   take place behind the front in the less unstable airmass. A few
   storms could develop ahead of the front but deep-layer shear is
   forecast to be relatively weak across most of the instability
   corridor. For this reason, a severe threat is not anticipated across
   the CONUS today and tonight.
