• 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.

Several watches up and several Tornado warnings going on at this time.

TOR warnings in Michigan,Indiana and Georgia.

In Southwest Indiana and Northeast Michigan trained storm spotters are reporting funnel clouds. So starting a NOW Thread. Is anybody chasing these storms?

MOD: I forgot to abreviate the states in my title thanks for fixing that for me.
 
In Georgia there is a TOR warned storm north of Atlanta and moing east towards gainsville. So Starting a NOW Thread.

THE PUBLIC REPORTED A TORNADO NEAR BALL GROUND...OR
ABOUT 11 MILES NORTHEAST OF CANTON. THIS TORNADO WAS MOVING TO THE
EAST AT 15 MPH AND CROSSING HIGHWAY 575 NEAR BALL GROUND.

Is anyone chasing this storm?
 
Looks like the southern Knox county Indiana storm is really taking over. Real nice looking hook....I bet there is probably a good size tornado going on in southern Knox county right now.
 
well it looks like that supercell in Knox county has quickly morphed into something else.....more linear looking and less tornadic. I saw where Vincennes IN had golfball size hail with this storm earlier. It will be interesting to see if a tornado was reported with it or not.

I've got some friends chasing the Michigan storms...I'm nowcasting for them...They were interning at the NWS in Gaylord when the storm was tornado warned. Before they got the reports of funnel clouds, they weren't going to tornado warn it.
 
Just came out of Franklin county in SE Indiana - the storm there got tornado warned while we were in the county. Lots of rain, didn't see anything but the 1.5 - 2 inches hail. The cell was looking good for the previous few scans - a TVS off and on, mesos then just before it reached Brookville it showed a nice couplet on the SRV. I guess that nice couplet pushed the NWS office to issue the TOR warning.

Althought we knew it, the terrain in this area is just horrible. At times we were driving through a forest - really! We were in a holler with no view of the sky at times. Note to self: don't chase in S Indiana again.
 
Still a TOR warned cell just west of branson missuori. If anyone is still chasing and heading that way take caution.
