   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Severe thunderstorm potential currently appears too low and isolated
   for an outlook area on day 3.

   ...Synopsis/Discussion...
   In mid/upper levels, general deamplification but persistence of
   troughing is expected over the central/eastern CONUS through the
   period.  Meanwhile, a prominent high will meander erratically over
   the southern Great Basin, while the associated anticyclone
   strengthens/expands slightly.  The remnant midlevel low of tropical
   cyclone Beryl will weaken and move northeastward from the Lake Huron
   area toward southern QC, while at the surface, the original low
   dissipates and a triple-point low near the NY/QC border also
   weakens.  The remnant surface cold front -- from eastern NY/western
   New England south-southwestward across the Carolinas -- should
   decelerate and undergo frontolysis.  While enough moisture and shear
   may remain to support conditional strong/severe-thunderstorm
   potential in parts of New England this period, the overall weakening
   of both the upper trough and the frontal zone suggest too much
   uncertainty on sufficient lift and storm coverage for a severe area
   this far out in time. 

   A conditional risk for severe thunderstorms may develop during the
   afternoon or evening, near a zone of warm frontogenesis across
   portions of the lower Missouri Valley.  Planar progs of moisture,
   instability and shear show a favorable parameter space over this
   region, with rich low-level moisture underlying mostly steep
   low/middle-level lapse rates.  However, EML-related stable
   layers/capping, as well as modest strength of lift near the warm
   front, lend too much uncertainty on convective coverage/longevity to
   introduce an unconditional risk area at this time.
