   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Isolated thunderstorms are possible from western Oregon towards
   northeast California and northwest Nevada through tonight.

   ...20z Update...

   The previous outlook remains on track with a few thunderstorms
   possible across parts of Oregon, northeast CA and northwest NV into
   tonight. Severe storms are not expected.

   .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1012 AM CST Mon Feb 14 2022/

   ...OR/northeast CA/northwest NV...
   A vigorous shortwave trough near the WA coast will dig south into
   northern CA by 12Z. Substantial steepening of low to mid-level lapse
   rates will occur as the mid-level cold pool (-30 to -35 C at 500 mb)
   approaches. This should support meager surface-based buoyancy amid
   40s surface dew points, mainly along and west of the Cascades across
   western OR. A few lower-topped showers might sufficiently deepen for
   sporadic lightning flashes later this afternoon into this evening in
   the zone of ascent immediately preceding the shortwave trough.
   Low-end thunder potential may linger tonight as the marginally
   supportive environment spreads towards the OR/CA/NV border.
