Lightningcast V2 Over Terrain

With a lull in activity over our assigned CWA. I decided to go into CONUS view just to see what was going on across the country. An area that drew my attention was in the Grand Junction CWA. In this area, there were multiple examples of regions with observed lightning from FED and ground based networks, where lightningcast version 2 had little to no probabilities.
