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.

Sam, was that second one real time, or was it edited? If that was real time that thing was sure active.
Looks good.

Ah...yes, the night of the Hallam, NE event. I remember that night. In fact after everyone crashed at the Victorian Inn in Beautrice, I took the WeatherBus (minivan) out to the east-southeast part of town and took a few shots of the last of the storms as they moved off:
Taken with a poorly Canon D30 (3.2mp) DSLR.
It looks real time to me...and it was JUST THAT ACTIVE!!!
I'll see if Jeff Gammons has his video from in front of the hotel online....super good spider lightning that night.

Hello Doug, I did a bit of editing to decrease the time between strokes. However, not much had to be removed.

I once watched a storm that literally had a lightning strike every second. These strikes were very photogenic and big. Mostly cloud to ground/ ground to cloud strikes. I was very young at the time and I have never seen a storm that active again. Great video Sam.
