   ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Thunderstorms are not forecast across the United States on
   Wednesday.

   ...Discussion...

   Dry, stable conditions will prevail across most of the lower 48
   states Wednesday as continental air mass and offshore flow prevail
   along the Atlantic/Gulf coasts. One exception is across the Pacific
   Northwest where weak buoyancy will be noted ahead of an incoming
   short-wave trough. NAM forecast soundings for the extreme
   northwestern portions of WA suggest 100+ J/kg MUCAPE will be
   maintained across this region, where moist onshore flow prevails
   beneath cold mid-level temperatures. While weak low-topped
   convection will be noted ahead of the short wave, the likelihood for
   more than a few flashes of lightning appears minimal. For these
   reasons thunderstorm probabilities will remain below 10 percent.
