...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not forecast tonight.

...01z Update...

Deep convection is gradually waning across coastal Carolina and
south-central TX early this evening, primarily due to boundary-layer
cooling and weak forcing. Lightning will quickly move off the
Carolina coast over the next hour, but isolated thunderstorms are
expected to linger across south-central TX and over the FL Peninsula
for the next few hours. Otherwise, no severe is expected.
