   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Severe thunderstorms are not expected today.

   ...Florida/Southeast States...
   A low-amplitude trough over the Lower Mississippi Valley will reach
   the coastal Southeast this evening. Across Florida, sufficient
   moisture and supportive wind profiles could allow for a few
   weak/transient supercells, mainly near east/southeast coastal areas
   in vicinity of the northward-shifting boundary/moist sector.
   However, poor mid-level lapse rates and a residual flow weakness
   generally between 1-3 km AGL suggests that organized severe
   potential should remain low. Late tonight, a few strong storms could
   graze the North Carolina coast; however, appreciable moistening and
   destabilization is not currently expected inland.

   ...West...
   Very cold mid-level temperatures (<-30C at 500mb) will overspread
   northern California into Nevada later today as a pronounced upper
   trough advances inland. The steepest mid-level lapse rates will be
   observed north of the jet as it digs toward the lower Colorado River
   Valley during the latter half of the period. While a few flashes of
   lightning may be noted with convection along the northern California
   coast, a greater risk for isolated thunderstorms will be in upslope
   regions of the Sierra Nevada during the afternoon.
