..NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST
..SUMMARY
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE NOT EXPECTED ON MONDAY.
..SYNOPSIS
A MID-LEVEL CUT-OFF LOW WILL CONTINUE TO MEANDER OFF OF THE ATLANTIC
COAST WHILE AN UPPER TROUGH DEEPENS OVER THE INTERIOR WEST AND AN
UPPER RIDGE REMAINS IN PLACE OVER THE CENTRAL U.S. ON MONDAY. A COOL
AND/OR STABLE LOW-LEVEL AIRMASS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE OVER MOST OF
THE U.S., LIMITING THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. HOWEVER, THE
AMPLIFICATION OF THE WESTERN UPPER TROUGH WILL PROMOTE LOW-LEVEL
MOISTURE RETURN BENEATH COOLING TEMPERATURES ALOFT OVER THE DESERT
SOUTHWEST, INCREASING THE CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS IN THIS AREA. A
THUNDERSTORM OR TWO MAY ALSO OCCUR OVER THE FAR SOUTHERN FL
PENINSULA, IN TANDEM WITH THE HEATING OF SOME RESIDUAL LOW-LEVEL
MOISTURE.
