   1226 AM CST Thu Dec 23 2021

   Valid 241200Z - 251200Z

   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Isolated thunder is possible near the Pacific Coast, as well as over
   portions of the southern Great Basin and Colorado Plateau.

   ...Synopsis...
   A mid-level low will be located off the Pacific Northwest coast on
   Friday and drift slowly south through the day. Farther south, a
   progressive mid-level trough will move quickly from off the southern
   California coast at 12Z Friday to the Midwest by 12Z Saturday. 

   Some isolated thunderstorms will be possible along the Pacific Coast
   from just north of the Bay Area to Vancouver Island. Cold air will
   be in place inland and therefore, instability for thunderstorm
   development will be driven by cold air advection above relatively
   warm ocean waters. Therefore, thunderstorm activity is not expected
   to make it far inland with the threat remaining mostly offshore and
   ending pretty quickly once any storm activity moves inland. 

   A few lightning flashes will be possible across portions of the
   Inter Mountain West. Instability will be quite meager according to
   forecast soundings, but may be sufficient for some charge separation
   and a few lightning flashes.
