...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are not expected through tonight.

...Synopsis and Discussion...
Broadly cyclonic flow will persist through the period over much of
the central/eastern CONUS. At the surface, high pressure will be
maintained over the Southeast. This will limit Gulf moisture to
parts of coastal TX, with minimal potential for thunderstorms over
land due to weak instability and poor lapse rates aloft. Dry and/or
stable conditions are expected across the remainder of the CONUS.
