   Valid 050100Z - 051200Z

   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Severe thunderstorms are not expected tonight.

   ...Northern Great Basin...

   Strong short-wave trough has moved inland and currently extends from
   western OR into northeast CA. This feature will spread across the
   Great Basin tonight which will result in a surface front surging
   into eastern ID/northern UT/central NV after 06z. Deep convection,
   with some lightning, has been noted ahead of this feature over
   northern CA over the last few hours. However, deeper convection is
   now developing downstream, east of the Sierra Nevada, in association
   with large-scale forcing. It appears isolated thunderstorms may
   spread farther inland than earlier anticipated, so 10 percent
   thunder line will be adjusted to account for this evolution.
