Pete noticed that at ~1950 UTC SW of KLWX, three storms had different lightning characteristics. The furthest SW had CGs before LMA showed anything, the in the middle had LMA and CGs at the same time, and the furthest north had LMA first prior to any CGs.  The furthest SW storm was the most severe on radar and highest lightning concentration on LMA, thus Pete quickly issued an SVR.
