Convective Discussion
Thunderstorm development today will depend on the weakening upper ridge and the timing of the approaching cold front. There is the expectation that low level moisture will continue to build today leading to an increase in thunderstorm potential with some organised storms possibly developing. Most of the initiation will be in Quebec with storms eventually moving into the Atlantic region late this afternoon. The overall threat of severe weather is low but that outlook may change if a linear feature forms along the cold front and moves over the area.
