Valid 030100Z - 031200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not expected across the contiguous United
States tonight.
...Synopsis...
Water-vapor imagery shows a large-scale trough over the Four Corners
and the mid-level trough will pivot east into the High Plains by
early Thursday morning. A surface front located over the northwest
Gulf Coast into the OH Valley will gradually move southeast tonight.
The area of potential convective interest for a strong thunderstorm
will likely be relegated to the Gulf Coast near the TX/LA border.
The Wednesday evening raob from Lake Charles, LA showed relatively
stunted lapse rates limiting buoyancy despite a gradual moistening
of the low-level profile. Current expectation is for general
thunderstorms to develop later this evening into the overnight over
the northwest Gulf Coast and persist into early Thursday morning.
