• 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.

12/4/06 REPORTS: NY/PA Lake-effect snow event

Currently in Erie, PA after documenting a brief but intense lake-effect snowfall event in Buffalo, NY during my first 'lake effect chase'. I was after thundersnow, but didn't get it this time. Still had a blast in some of the heaviest snowfall rates I've seen.

Most people here know how to drive on ice and snow, evidenced by only two cars in the ditch on I-90 between Erie and Buffalo (that's about 90 miles). The truck drivers didn't seem to be paying the ice much attention, barreling past me at 70MPH on a completely ice/snow covered highway. No surprise that I saw more 18 wheelers in the ditch than cars!

Heading down to the Pittsburgh area to visit family for a couple days, then possibly heading back up to the lakeshore for another round on Thursday.

A few more shots:
