Upon starting the shift we had a supercell that was about 1 hr out from our first event. In operations our DSS forecaster would have immediately informed our partner that the cell (which had 1” hail report) is barreling in from the southwest.
Both versions of the LTG cast were providing a 70% chance of LTG within the next hour as well, with convection out ahead of the main supercell the heads up notification would also have included this information.
45minutes later we had our first lightning strike onsite ahead of the main supercell.

Activity began to wind down by 2030Z
An all clear call would have been made at 2100Z with the stoplight product largely vacant of any lightning detection. MRMS-10C was also outside of the 8mile range ring with little build up expected upstream. Lightning cast had also dropped to around 10%.
