EMBEDDED WITHIN A LARGE-SCALE TROUGH ENCOMPASSING THE EASTERN

MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY INTO THE LOWER GREAT LAKES DURING THE
AFTERNOON. STRENGTHENING LARGE-SCALE ASCENT AND STEEPENING OF
DEEP-LAYER LAPSE RATES MAY YIELD WEAK AND SHALLOW BUOYANCY. HOWEVER,
THERMODYNAMIC PROFILES APPEAR INSUFFICIENT TO SUPPORT DEEP
CONVECTION OR LIGHTNING AT THIS TIME.
