..NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST  
 
   
..SUMMARY  
 
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS REMAIN POSSIBLE ALONG PARTS OF THE CENTRAL  
GULF COAST TONIGHT.  
   
..01Z UPDATE  
 
EARLY-EVENING WATER-VAPOR IMAGERY DEPICTS A LOW-AMPLITUDE SHORT-WAVE  
TROUGH PROGRESSING NORTHEAST ALONG THE MIDDLE TX COAST. THIS FEATURE  
WILL LOSE ITS IDENTITY AS IT EJECTS INTO THE CENTRAL GULF STATES  
LATER TONIGHT. SCATTERED, SHALLOW CONVECTION IS NOTED AHEAD OF THIS  
FEATURE FROM THE NORTHWESTERN GULF BASIN, EXTENDING NORTHEAST ALONG  
THE LA COAST INTO SOUTHERN AL. BUOYANCY IS LIMITED INLAND AS SURFACE  
DEW POINTS ARE ONLY IN THE LOWER 50S ALONG THE COAST DUE TO EASTERLY  
BOUNDARY-LAYER FLOW. ELEVATED INSTABILITY SHOULD GRADUALLY INCREASE  
OVERNIGHT AND FORECAST SOUNDINGS SUGGEST AMPLE BUOYANCY FOR  
LIGHTNING DISCHARGE WITH UPDRAFTS ROOTED NEAR 900MB. ISOLATED  
THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL CONTINUES.
