11PM Day 1 Convective Outlook for Tuesday, February 24. NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST
SUMMARY
Thunderstorms are not expected across the US today.
Discussion
Along the northern periphery of an expansive upper ridge encompassing the western half of the CONUS, a low-amplitude shortwave trough will impinge on the northern Rockies during the overnight hours. While the development of shallow buoyancy may promote low-topped convection ahead of the trough, lightning is not expected.
