• 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.

On another site, discussion on the snow pack and pack ice at the north pole and in Siberia are already starting to fill in too. This seem to be a good thing from the folks that knew more about it than me. Early snow pack here in the US is a good thing. We also will need to keep the temperatures low, and get the ground frozen for us to see much.

Who here is a good synoptic forecast meteorologist, because I stink, but would love to learn more about winter weather patterns.

There are so many variables when it comes to winter weather long term forecasting. They include Pacific Temperatures (ENSO or La Nina), Siberian Pack Ice, Ridging, and those are too name a few. I'm not an expert nor a novice I tried to understand what caused winter patterns but it just blew my mind. I am still trying to pick it up but its confusing.
