   ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Sunday or Sunday night.

   ...Upper MS Valley to the Great Lakes...
   Isolated, elevated thunderstorms are expected to be the predominant
   convective scenario on Sunday. An amplifying shortwave trough will
   move east across northern portions of the Great Plains and Upper
   Midwest. This will yield deepening of a surface cyclone from the
   central Plains to Lake Superior. Despite this amplification, poor
   quality boundary-layer moisture return relative to a stout EML
   appears likely to inhibit surface-based storm development through
   the period. Thin, uncapped buoyancy will probably be relegated to
   parcels around 700 mb. This will expand east during the day from the
   Upper Midwest into the Great Lakes. Small hail is possible, mainly
   across the Upper MS Valley, where fast flow will exist in the
   cloud-bearing layer.

   ...CO to MO...
   Isolated thunderstorms are possible in CO by late afternoon Sunday
   within a post-frontal environment characterized by limited low-level
   moisture and meager buoyancy. Very isolated thunderstorms may
   develop Sunday night into Monday morning with eastward extent across
   KS to MO. Scant elevated buoyancy may develop as 700-mb
   frontogenesis strengthens within a highly diffluent upper-level flow
   regime, atop an increasingly post-frontal stable surface.
