Wow who would have thought it! Amanda and I were out in the hottub when she said "I just saw lightning". Sure enough, way off to the north we watched 6 or 7 CC strikes light up the distant clouds. This has got to be the earliest we've ever seen lightning from our house in Denver! There is a surface low up north with temps in the 50s and dewpoints close to 30 - apparently enough for lightning!
SPC has a mention of it:
...WY/NORTH-CENTRAL PLAINS TO OZARKS/MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...

WY INTO SOUTHERN SD/FAR NORTHERN NEB THIS EVENING IN CONCERT WITH
