...SYNOPSIS...
LONGWAVE TROUGH FCST TO REMAIN OVER ERN CONUS...THOUGH WITH SOMEWHAT
LOWER AMPLITUDE THAN CURRENTLY. STG SHORTWAVE TROUGH -- NOW EVIDENT
IN MOISTURE CHANNEL IMAGERY FROM SRN ONT SSWWD ACROSS AL -- WILL
DEAMPLIFY AND EJECT OFFSHORE NEW ENGLAND/MID-ATLANTIC COAST BEFORE

VALLEY AND CENTRAL/SRN APPALACHIANS. AT SFC...COLD FRONT FOLLOWING
INITIAL/STG TROUGH OFFSHORE WILL RENDER AIR MASS ACROSS MOST OF
CONUS TOO STABLE/DRY TO SUPPORT TSTMS.

...GREAT LAKES...
COLD/CYCLONIC LOW LEVEL FLOW ACROSS RELATIVELY WARM GREAT
LAKES...ESPECIALLY LM/LH/LE...MAY RESULT IN SUFFICIENTLY MOIST
NEAR-SFC LAYER AND STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES TO SUPPORT VERY
BRIEF/ISOLATED THUNDER. MODIFIED NAM-KF FCST SOUNDINGS SUGGEST
MLCAPES UP TO ABOUT 50 J/KG AND MUCAPE 100-200 J/KG POSSIBLE...WITH
DEEPEST CONVECTIVE PLUMES REACHING INTO -20 TO -25 DEG C THERMAL
LAYER ALOFT. THREAT APPEARS TOO CONDITIONAL/ISOLATED FOR GEN TSTM
