   ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Thunderstorms are not expected across the continental United States
   through tonight.

   ...Synopsis...
   A surface cold front will continue to move slowly southeastward
   across AL/GA/Carolinas, in the wake of a midlevel trough moving
   across the Mid Atlantic/New England today.  Weak elevated convection
   and isolated lightning strikes have been observed this morning from
   the southern Appalachians into AL, though the trend has been for
   this convection to slowly diminish since 15z.  Given only marginal
   buoyancy rooted in the 850-700 mb layer (per the 12z BMX sounding)
   and weakening forcing for ascent through the day, the prospects for
   additional thunderstorms beyond 1630z from AL/GA into the Carolinas
   appear too limited to warrant the addition of an outlook area.
