   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Severe storms are not expected through tonight.

   ...Discussion...
   Aside from a few minor thunder line adjustments, the ongoing outlook
   continues to accurately reflect current expectations regarding
   shower/isolated thunderstorm activity ongoing near and ahead of the
   advancing eastern U.S. cold front.  Severe weather is not expected
   through the period.

   ..Goss.. 11/18/2021

   .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1026 AM CST Thu Nov 18 2021/

   A relatively strong cold front is sagging southward across parts of
   TX/LA/MS today, with widely scattered pockets of showers and
   thunderstorms noted across the region.  Forcing for ascent will
   continue to weaken along the front this afternoon, with coverage of
   convection becoming more sparse through the day.  

   An area of ongoing showers and thunderstorms over deep south TX will
   build southward and out of the area by late this afternoon, ending
   the risk of thunderstorms.

   Widespread rain with embedded thunderstorms will persist over south
   FL and adjacent offshore areas through the day.  Isolated
   thunderstorms may develop northward along the FL east coast this
   afternoon where weak daytime heating will occur.  No severe storms
   are expected.

   Isolated showers and a few thunderstorms are possible this afternoon
   and tonight along the coast of GA/SC/NC, but most convection is
   expected to remain offshore.
