• 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.

Has anyone seen a PNS / Damage assessment out of NWSFO OUN regarding the intense supercell that trekked across OK?! I can't imagine they haven't released something other than the first mini-assessment on a couple of tornadoes just north and notheast of OKC. OUN is typically pretty timely in their assessments, as most are done w/in a week of the event. Anyone else know what's going on here? Certainly the storm should prompt a damage assessment, and I can't imagine why they'd be so tardy with it.
 
My May 29th was considerably less spectacular than most, but I finished the full report page with video grabs and stills a few weeks ago and thought it would be fun to revive a RPT thread from one of the classic chase days. I chased the Concordia storm, along with the Weathervine crew, and we arrived to the party a little late, but in time to see a few things.

Chased 4 satilite tornadoes and got stuck on a wet dirt road with a red dodge neon. If anyone saw me please send me pictures for laughs :lol: . My avatar is one of my pics but i dont have a web sight to download the rest to.
 
Were you the guy on the radio looking for help, but did not know where you were stuck at?? I got a kick out of that salvo of talk on the ham.

It is never good to get lost on country roads and then get stuck ;)

Nope. My chase partner and i just got out and pushed. the entire car was covered in mud and so were we. After pushing the car for about a mile and a half we got some tracktion and drove through a large goup of chaseres who couldnt beleave there eyes. We couldnt stop laughing. But i think i know who you are talking about. A couple had slid off the road. they might be who your talking about.
