Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

Valid 291630Z - 301200Z

...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not expected through Saturday morning.

...Northern/central CA coast through Saturday morning...
No changes to previous outlook. In association with a midlevel
shortwave trough moving eastward, a front and coincident rain band
will spread inland over the central/northern CA coast late today
into tonight. Gradual steepening of low-midlevel lapse rates as the
mid levels cool will contribute to weak buoyancy rooted near the
surface within and west of the frontal band. Isolated low-topped
thunderstorms will be possible, primarily near the coast tonight
through Saturday morning.
