...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not forecast across the contiguous United
States through tonight.

...Synopsis...
Water-vapor imagery this morning shows an upper trough over the
eastern Pacific to the west of the Pacific Northwest coast. This
upper feature will move east-northeast into British Columbia and
WA/OR tonight. Cooling midlevel temperatures will result in weak
buoyancy (100-200 J/kg MUCAPE) late today into tonight from portions
of northern CA northward along the coastal ranges of OR/WA.
Elsewhere, mainly tranquil and stable conditions will prevail across
the Lower 48 states.
