   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Isolated thunderstorms may occur late this afternoon into early
   tonight from parts of central Nevada toward the Coastal Range in
   southern California.

   ...Synopsis...
   A deep midlevel trough will progress southeastward over CA/NV and
   will reach the lower CO River valley by Wednesday morning.  Cold
   midlevel temperatures and associated steep lapse rates will support
   the potential for low-topped convection and isolated lightning
   flashes both from east of the southern Sierra Nevada into northwest
   AZ this afternoon into early tonight, and across southern CA. 
   Otherwise, air mass modification and the early stages of return flow
   are underway across the Gulf basin and FL Straits.  However, the
   degree of moistening inland will be insufficient for deep convection
   until later in the D2 period across the southern Plains and south
   FL.
