• 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.

SPC has a slight risk and 5% tornado for most of central Kansas.

Currently it is raining over much of the area, but we can get a clear period after noon, the airmass should recover.
 
I'm a little surprised that SPC didn't reduce the size of their 5% area and shift it a little further south at 1630. I'm really not liking the redevelopment of precip in the ok.panhandle. it appears that the clearing occurs in far southern harper/sumner/cowley cos. into nc ok.--that might be the play today--assuming that the cloud debris from ok.panhndle activity doesn't screw it all up. really don't see a lot of airmass recovery north of highway 54 anymore due to rain shield persisting into the noon hour.
 
MD for ks/ok

spc has issued an md for the ks/ok border areas. I'm new at this gonna give it a try. The RUC at 19z shows cape at 3000 on the ks/ok border south of ict. Low to mid 70s dp, some veering in the low level winds 850 and 950mb should allow for a few good cells to fire up if the warm from doesn't move to far north. I'm headed down from ict on I35 south to south haven to monitor and adjust from there.
