   ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Thunderstorms are not expected across the contiguous U.S. through
   tonight.

   ...20Z Update...
   No changes have been made to the ongoing forecast. A few showers
   have developed across parts of south FL this afternoon in a weak
   instability environment. But, sustained convection capable of
   producing lightning flashes still appears unlikely.

   .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1028 AM CST Sat Feb 05 2022/

   ...Discussion...
   A quiescent pattern for thunderstorm potential is expected across
   the CONUS. Scattered low-topped showers should develop near a cold
   front drifting south across south FL. Very poor mid-level lapse
   rates (less than 5 C/km) owing to a relatively warm/stable layer
   near 600 mb per 12Z MFL/KEY soundings suggest most of the convection
   will remain low-topped, with negligible probabilities for deeper
   updrafts producing lightning.
