• 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.

I'm sure quite a few of you are watching the whole situation up in the Dakotas, but did anyone see that tor warned storm in Tripp and Lymon, SD? My GR2AE had two scans showing a 70K+ top, and now a 68K top.
(Once I figure out how to post a picture I will of the scans)

This thing had a major hook and couplet too. Crazy looking storm...

IF YOU ARE NEAR THIS DANGEROUS TORNADO...TAKE COVER NOW!
 
Wow!!!! Hope there's some chasers on these bad boys. The cell north of Bismark looks great with an awesome couplet. The one to the south dont look too shabby either.
 
Cell to the southeast of Bismark is going nutso! Incredible pinwheeling hook. Hope there's no towns in front of it as this one has to have a tornado.
 
Beatiful supercell (on radar) SE of BIS. Wouldn't be surprised to see tornado reports out of it. Sadly, I had to skip this setup as I'm hosting my grandparents.
