• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

This is a huge SLT Risk area, stretching from almost the Gulf Coast, all the way to the Canadian border, or from Jackson, MS to Rochester, NY! A very marginal threat for tornadoes, mainly in MS and LA, but the biggest threat will be damaging winds, with the greatest threat in KY,TN,MS,LA,AR, and southen IL,IN, and OH. Not the best of instability, but a highly sheard atmosphere over a very large area, with some storms being able to tap into it, bringing damaging winds to the surface. Currently, storm are trying to get going in Central and Southern Arkansas, with a MD currently issued for a possible watch, probably after noon. Watching system just because its a slow time for severe storms.
 
New watch to be issued shortly for Arkansas and SE Missouri, possibly Western Kentucky and Tennessee. I believe this will be a tornado watch, given the highly sheared environment. Still a high damaging wind threat, essentially centered around Paducah, KY, and down to Memphis. The most severe activity will then shift towards a Nashville to Louisville line, pretty much along I-65. Watching for initiation in the next 2 hours.
