Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

Valid 090100Z - 091200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
A few thunderstorms are possible along a portion of the coastal
Pacific Northwest tonight.
...Discussion...
Minimal change from the previous outlook with potential for isolated
thunderstorms during the late evening to early overnight. In the
wake of a low-amplitude shortwave trough shifting east across the
Northwest, a plume of steep mid-level lapse rates will expand
southeastward across most of coastal OR. Guidance is consistent in
depicting a surface trough encroaching on the coast by 06-08Z.
Scattered low-topped convection should accompany this trough,
especially towards the WA coast. Buoyancy should remain scant at
most, but may be adequate for a few embedded thunderstorms before
convection weakens inland.
