   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Isolated thunderstorms may occur Saturday across parts of south
   Florida and coastal/east Texas. Severe thunderstorms are not
   expected.

   ...TX and South FL...

   Late-evening water-vapor imagery depicts an area of large-scale
   forcing for ascent across the central High Plains within an exit
   region of a digging 500mb speed max. This feature is forecast to
   move across far west TX before translating through the base of the
   digging short wave into the northwestern Gulf Basin during the
   overnight hours. This mid-level short wave should induce a surface
   wave along a surging cold front that will advance into deep South TX
   by 18z, then shift southeast and remain relatively weak as it
   settles into the southern Basin by the end of the period. Modest
   buoyancy is forecast to develop across deep south TX early and
   frontal ascent may contribute to weak elevated convection atop the
   surging frontal zone. A few robust updrafts may actually develop
   just off the south TX Coast as this boundary interacts with somewhat
   higher instability. At this time indications are convection over
   land should remain sub-severe.

   Downstream, surface front is forecast to advance across the FL
   Panhandle into the eastern Gulf Basin with a pre-frontal confluence
   zone expected to evolve well ahead of the front over the western FL
   Straits across the southern Peninsula. This pre-frontal confluence
   zone may encourage a few thunderstorms, and while deep-layer flow is
   expected to be strong, low-level shear will be marginal and
   buoyancy/forcing appear inadequate for severe.
