   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

   Valid 281200Z - 291200Z

   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Thursday.

   ...Synopsis...
   A deep upper-level trough is forecast to move eastward across the
   eastern CONUS on Thursday, as another deep upper-level trough
   gradually moves eastward across the West. A surface cyclone is
   forecast to amplify and move northeastward just offshore of the
   Carolina coast, as a trailing cold front sweeps through the Florida
   Peninsula. 

   While a favorable overlap of buoyancy and deep-layer shear will be
   in place across the FL Peninsula prior to the frontal passage,
   weakening large-scale ascent across the warm sector is currently
   expected to limit storm coverage and intensity. Otherwise, elevated
   convection may persist through the day across parts of the coastal
   Carolinas. 

   Across parts of the Northwest, Great Basin, and northern Rockies,
   cold temperatures aloft associated with the upper-level trough may
   support weak convection capable of sporadic lightning flashes. Gusty
   winds may accompany convection across parts of eastern NV and
   western UT, but weak instability should limit the severe threat.
