Severe thunderstorms are not expected today or tonight. ....Synopsis... Water-vapor imagery early this morning shows a mid to upper-level low over northern CA and an associated large-scale trough over the West Coast. A mid-level ridge is downstream over the Great Plains to the west of a large-scale trough/mid-level low near the East Coast. The western U.S. trough/low will gradually pivot east through Saturday morning across the Desert Southwest and Great Basin. Isolated thunderstorms are possible across CA/NV/AZ in conjunction with increasing large-scale ascent and sporadic pockets of weak buoyancy. Isolated thunderstorms are also possible across the central and northern Rockies and adjacent plains. Strong gusts cannot be ruled out with a few thunderstorms, but limited buoyancy will likely preclude the development of severe thunderstorms through tonight. ...Smith/Wendt.. 04/05/2024 $$ --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux * Origin: ILink: CCO - capitolcityonline.net (454:3/105) .
