   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Thunderstorms are possible from the Mid-Atlantic States southward
   into Florida on Friday. Severe weather is not expected.

   ...Discussion...
   As an upper trough shifts eastward across the southern and eastern
   U.S. Friday, an associated cold front -- extending from New England
   to the Florida Panhandle early -- will likewise move steadily
   eastward.  The boundary is expected to clear the Atlantic coast
   through the morning and afternoon hours, lingering only across
   Florida through the second half of the period.

   Ahead of the front, very weak instability is expected -- possibly
   supporting local/occasional lightning within the zone of low-topped
   frontal convection.  This lack of appreciable CAPE suggests that
   convection will remain weak/sub-severe, though gusty winds could
   occur locally with passage of the frontal band across the East Coast
   states during the day.

   Elsewhere, thunderstorms are not expected.
