Scattered showers, many with no reported lightning associated with them produced wind gusts in excess of 58 mph across portions of southeastern Wyoming. Strongest gust was 68 mph measured near Elk Mountain and Sibley Peak. A thorough review of lightning data was used to assist and verify if lightning was present in and around the time of the reported wind gusts. Deep inverted V soundings were present in the hours ahead of the event, an indicative sign of strong mixing and wind speeds possible with these cellular storms.
