• 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.

Filmed a tornado from 15-20 miles away west of Oswatomie, KS, just west of the Franklin/Miami County line. It was a truncated cone that roped out beautifully. The structure was the best I've seen since the Greensburg, KS supercell, however much less intense. Pics soon!

I am kicking my own arse because I followed that from South Lyon to Anderson when I stayed on a hill. I turned back and within a minute it must have dropped......... Sickening
 
I had seen the cone from about 20 miles away on highway 68 between Louisburg and Ottawa.

I was able to manuever right under the storm there soon after. I watched it rotate and I thought it was going to keep its act together. It soon fell apart into almost nothing around Edgerton, Ks.

I will go with Mike and say AWESOME structure on that storm. Excited to see your tornado pics Mike.
 
A storm cell just got tornado warned for northeast Morris County including the town of Council Grove. I am keeping an eye on this. It is now too dark to take pictures of anything.
 
Tornado Warning for Geary County. Judging by radar alone their is a tornado on the ground. Very tight cuplet with stong inboud and outbound.
