...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...



...SUMMARY...

Severe thunderstorms are not forecast across the contiguous United

States through tonight.



...Synopsis...

A mid-level low over AZ will slowly weaken and migrate eastward to 

NM during the period.  A mid-level ridge will extend northward from

northern CA into the Pacific Northwest.  Farther east, broad

cyclonic mid-level flow will encompass the Upper Midwest

southeastward through the East Coast.  Isolated to scattered

thunderstorms are possible mainly during the afternoon and evening

across the Desert Southwest/Four Corners.  Surface high pressure

centered over the southern Great Plains into the Southeast will lead

to offshore flow and tranquil conditions in those areas.
