...no severe thunderstorm areas forecast...
...summary...
severe thunderstorms are not expected on sunday.
...synopsis...
a strong mid-level trough will move from the great lakes to
southeast canada during the day on sunday. a cold front is forecast
to initially exist from southeast virginia to the florida panhandle.
the cold front will move into the atlantic and gulf as surface high
pressure builds in its wake.
some lingering moisture and weak instability will likely be present
ahead of the front sunday morning. by late morning, heating may be
sufficient for some storms along and ahead of the front. however,
given the weak instability, no severe weather is expected. this
front will continue southeast into the atlantic/gulf by late
afternoon and bring an end to any storm threat across the conus
(except for the florida peninsula).
