   ...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.
