...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Tuesday.

...Synopsis...

A series of upper troughs will migrate across the north-central U.S.
on Tuesday while upper ridging amplifies over the East. Southerly
low-level flow will maintain modest boundary layer moisture (mainly
50s F dewpoints) from OK/KS into the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes, with
60s F dewpoints possible further south across TX. A surface front
initially over KS to central IA will lift northward through the
period in response to increasing low-level warm advection ahead of a
shortwave trough traversing the northern Plains. Isolated
thunderstorms are possible within the broader warm advection regime
across parts of the Plains from South TX into the Mid-MO Valley.
Modest instability and generally weak vertical shear will preclude
severe potential.
