   ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   No thunderstorms are forecast across the United States today or
   tonight.

   ...Synopsis...
   Northwesterly flow aloft will continue across the eastern half of
   the CONUS today in the wake of a trough passage off the East Coast.
   A second low amplitude shortwave/upper-level jet over the Ohio
   Valley will reinforce dry offshore flow at the surface across the
   eastern half of the country. The limited surface moisture and lack
   of stronger forcing for ascent will keep thunderstorm chances very
   low. To the west, another low-amplitude shortwave trough moving
   onshore across the Pacific Northwest will support scattered showers
   and shallow convection through the day. However, warm temperatures
   aloft and the resulting poor thermodynamics will likely not support
   thunderstorms.
