   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   The risk of severe thunderstorms appears negligible across the U.S.
   Monday through Monday night.

   ...Synopsis...
   Mainly zonal flow aloft atop a cool, stable low-level airmass will
   limit thunderstorm development for much of the CONUS. The main
   exception would be portions of the FL Peninsula, where the approach
   of a mid-level trough will encourage the northward return of
   marginally buoyant air from the southwest to east-central FL
   coastline. A couple of thunderstorms are possible along portions of
   the FL coastline, especially later in the evening and overnight,
   when the mid-level trough gets closer to the peninsula. At the
   moment, it appears that the more favorable overlap of deep-layer
   ascent/shear and buoyancy to support a severe threat is expected to
   remain west of the peninsula up to 12Z Tuesday.
