While watching the storms enter our far western CWA, I noticed the GLM Events on the southern storm increased some (near the tip of the western part of the cwa in yellow) around 2010Z. At the same time, the GOES-16 data (upper right) didn't show any stronger areas or overshooting near that storm.

But when the next GOES-16 scan arrived, you can see the colder cloud tops with the overshooting top, matching the strengthening updraft indication from the GLM.

At 2022Z, the GLM data increased again, but the overshooting top is diminishing and dissipated on the next GOES-16 imagery.

In addition, I decided to try out the Stano colortable for a while and this seems to have increased the contrast on the moderate GLM values.
