Day 1 Convective Outlook

Valid 200100Z - 201200Z
...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not forecast.
...Synopsis...
Scattered thunderstorms currently exist along a cold front mainly
over the western Atlantic Ocean, and earlier affected Downeast
Maine. Thunderstorms chances have ended there as the front has now
pushed through the area.
To the west, broken arc of elevated thunderstorms extends from near
El Paso southeastward across the Rio Grande Valley. This area is in
a zone of theta-e advection just off the surface, with unstable
parcels rooted in the 850-700 mb layer. Weak instability will
preclude much of a hail risk, but overall storm chances should
continue to increase into central TX tonight.
