   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Isolated thunderstorms may occur across parts of the Southwest
   States, mainly during the late afternoon and evening.

   ...Discussion...
   Aside from minor adjustments to the thunder areas over the
   California/Nevada/Arizona area, no changes appear necessary at this
   time, with prior outlook reasoning still reflective of current
   convective expectations.

   .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1025 AM CST Tue Feb 15 2022/

   ...Southwest...
   A deep mid-level low over central CA will progress towards the CA/AZ
   border area by 12Z. Cold mid-level temperatures, peaking from -25 to
   -30 C at 500 mb, and associated steep lapse rates will support the
   potential for low-topped convection and sporadic lightning flashes
   from central/southern NV into northwest AZ and across coastal
   southern CA, mainly from later this afternoon through the evening.
