Lowest Speed for Hydroplaning?

What's the lowest speed at which you've ever hydroplaned? Not on slicks, but rather on street tires.

Yeah, yeah, I realize there are several factors that combine to lead up to this type of event. But in general, on a street-driven car on street tires, what's the lowest speed at which you've felt that "oh bleep" feeling of disconnect from the tires skipping along the water surface?

For me, I think it was about 50-55 mph.
