   ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Thunderstorms are unlikely across the contiguous United States
   today.

   ...Synopsis...
   A fairly progressive upper pattern is anticipated across the CONUS
   today. The shortwave trough currently moving into the Great Basin is
   forecast to continue eastward through the Four Corners and central
   Rockies, while a more northerly shortwave trough deepens/matures
   over the Canadian Prairie Provinces. 

   A deep surface low (associated with the maturing shortwave) is
   currently centered over west-central Saskatchewan. This low is
   expected to continue eastward throughout the day while becoming
   increasingly occluded. A cold front attendant to this low will sweep
   eastward/southeastward across the northern/central Plains and
   Upper/Mid MS Valley. Strong low-level moisture advection will
   precede this front, with upper 50s dewpoints reaching the mid MS
   Valley late tonight/early tomorrow morning. Even with this moisture
   advection, warm mid-levels will prevent thunderstorm development
   throughout the warm sector from the southern Plains into Mid MS
   Valley as well as over areas north of the warm front from the
   Lower/Middle OH Valley into Lower MI. 

   Stable conditions are expected elsewhere across the CONUS as well.
