• 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.

Oh it's happening sweetheart.

Strong SE winds ahead of a fairly sharp front in Central Neb. Solid vort max with good timing. Hodo's and VAD's this morning showing moderate 0-3km SRH. 3k SBCAPE already in please and lots more coming. Storm motions that aren't totally insane hopefully will give enough time to hold some supercellular characteristics before things get cold pooled.

This is going to be a Hail and brief tornado party. I would expect right about 21Z that we have a line of hybrid supers going up along the front and capable of producing some TORs for about an hour before they start to become outflow dominant. Hail will probably be very big.

Cams are in fairly good agreement, outside of the EURO which has bit faster progression. Further east into IA you might get some longer lived sells, but they will be far from the best dynamics. None the less hail and wind producers.

We just got a nice C2G show here in Omaha at around 9am with some pre-frontal energy. The ground is nice and moist and expect lots of ETP today keeping TD's up near 70-73. With surface temps booming up to near 100 to our south and good lapse rates the odds of a CAP bust are fairly low. Target: Raymond, NE (just NW of Lincoln), if I wasn't stuck at work today.

Y'all better go get me some good pictures.
