This was a case from MPX that showed two areas of intense cloud top cooling that corresponded to lightning jumps. Overall this is more of an observational post than a clear example of how OCTANE could be used for decision making.

Animated GIF zoomed in on the area of interest, with ENL lightning overlaid. The cloud top cooling lines up well, and slightly precedes, the electrification of the developing cumulonimbus.
