Valid 071200Z - 081200Z
...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorm potential is very low today.
...Discussion...
Mid-level speed max will strengthen as it digs south across CA and
off the Baja Peninsula. This will allow a short-wave trough to
settle south of the international border and close off over the
northern Gulf of CA by the end of the period. Large-scale
ascent/steepening lapse rates across AZ do result in some mid-level
moistening that leads to very weak buoyancy; however, forecast
soundings do not suggest adequate instability for any appreciable
risk of lightning with the weak convection that develops across this
region.
