I am thoroughly unimpressed...

WEAK AND WUSSY.... Day 1 from the SPC: CONDITIONAL SVR THREAT WILL TRANSLATE FROM W-E ACROSS THIS REGION ASSOCIATED EITHER WITH ONGOING MCS OVER EXTREME S-CENTRAL LA AND COASTAL WATERS...OR REINVIGORATION OF ITS REMNANTS. WRF/NGM FCSTS OF FAVORABLE DESTABILIZATION BETWEEN 12-18Z...OVER SERN LA -- APPEAR DOUBTFUL CONSIDERING CURRENT CONVECTIVE TRENDS. ALL OPERATIONAL MODELS APPEAR SLOW WITH PROGRESS OF CURRENT MCS -- NOW EVIDENT IN IR AND REFLECTIVITY IMAGERY FROM EXTREME S-CENTRAL LA SSWWD ACROSS GULF SHELF WATERS AND LIKELY TO REACH AL OR WRN FL PANHANDLE COASTAL WATERS BY BEGINNING OF PERIOD. MAIN CONCERN WOULD BE DAMAGING GUSTS...THOUGH BRIEF/ISOLATED TORNADO MAY OCCUR ASSOCIATED WITH BOW/LEWP MESO CIRCULATION. MARGINAL INSTABILITY AND WEAK VERTICAL SHEAR IN THE WARM SECTOR WILL LIMIT ANY SEVERE STORM THREAT ACROSS THE SERN STATES. Hazardous Weather Outlook: AT THIS TIME...INSTABILITY AND WIND SHEAR PARAMETERS DO NOT FAVOR ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER. HOWEVER...SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS MAY BECOME STRONG... and this early morning's AFD... THE TROUGH WEAKENS AS IT MOVES ACROSS THE SERN STATES AND NERN GULF OF MEXICO TONIGHT AND FRIDAY. MUCAPES RANGE FROM 200-400 J/KG INLAND TO AS HIGH AS 1000 J/KG OVER THE COASTAL WATERS. SWLY LOW LEVEL JET INCREASES TO 35-40 KTS DURING THE EVENING HOURS. THE GFS STILL PROJECTS AN MCS MOVING ALONG THE GULF COAST AS THE PARENT LOW TREKS JUST N OF THIS FEATURE. Chances are looking less and less likely for my area to have much of anything... sigh. This is the story of my life.

Oh well, I have a busy day anyway. My office is having a fundraiser lunch that I am in charge of... so I won't have time to monitor the (lack of) weather. I will keep an eye to it when I can, but I am not expecting much of anything this far inland based on what I've read. Perhaps next time, right? There's always the next one. This one appears to need to fall under the classification of a weak and wussy storm.

Sigh...
