...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
Little if any thunderstorms are expected on Friday.

...Synopsis...
An upper low will deepen over southern Quebec as an upper trough
amplifies across the eastern CONUS. Heights will rise along the
central Gulf Coast south of a strong upper jet, with a cold front
pushing south across the western Gulf of Mexico. A strong surface
ridge will extend from SK/MB southward across the Plains and into
the Southeast, maintaining stable conditions. Potential
thunderstorms off the LA Coast are expected to wane during the day.

To the west, a progressive, amplified shortwave trough will move
east across the northwestern states, with a surface low weakening
late off the WA/OR Coasts. A few low-topped thunderstorms are most
likely over the Pacific Ocean, but a low-probability flash or two
cannot be ruled out over far western WA and OR as the rapid cooling
aloft occurs.
