...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
A few thunderstorms will linger across the western US this evening.

...01z Update...

Strong midlevel jet will continue to sag south across CA/Great Basin
into the Four Corners region tonight. Steep lapse rates north of the
jet have proven favorable for scattered convection across portions
of the northwestern US into western WY. While a few flashes of
lightning remain possible with this diurnally-enhanced convection,
loss of daytime heating should lessen buoyancy along with the risk
for thunderstorms.
