   ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Thunderstorms are unlikely today or tonight across the U.S.

   ...Synopsis...
   Persistent surface high pressure and dry/cool conditions across the
   CONUS will continue to limit the potential for thunderstorms today.
   An atmospheric river will continue to flow into the Pacific
   Northwest ahead of an upper-level trough, which may support
   sufficient lift for modestly deep convection. Observed and forecast
   soundings suggest sufficient instability may be in place this
   afternoon for a lightning strike or two as temperatures warm into
   the upper 50s and low 60s. This is most likely across central to
   western WA, but the overall thunderstorm potential remains too
   limited (below 10% probability) to delineate an area.
