I don't think there are many folks watching, but there is a very nice tornado warned cell going on right now in Elbert and Lincoln Counties in Colorado. The tops are showing at 47k with 77dBZ on my GRLevel3

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.

Been watching that one all afternoon. Already one reported on ground near Kutch. Massive hail in it, too.

I'm finding it interesting how this storm has gobbled up the smaller one that formed quickly to it's southeast while everything behind it is still headed east-northeast.

New storm looked like it went up to its west a bit ago and now NW of the first sup. the new one is now starting to turn.

I've been watching that one also. During the past four frames on the radar, the first storm has slowed in its southeastward movement and become more linear to the southwest. I question whether they will continue the warning for that one even though the tops are running 52k now with 73dBZ.
EDIT: Well, I guessed wrong.... they extended the warning for 45 more minutes.
