Day 3 Convective Outlook

Valid 021200Z - 031200Z
...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms are not expected across the U.S. on Monday or Monday
night.
...Discussion...
A midlevel shortwave trough will advance eastward across the
southern Plains through the period, while a related surface low and
cold front move into the region. In response, weakly modified Gulf
moisture will spread northward ahead of the front, potentially
yielding weak buoyancy in the Arklatex vicinity by the end of the
period. However, the limited moisture/buoyancy and antecedent static
stability should limit thunderstorm potential.
