• 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.

Okay, so the first thing I have to say is LMAO!!!!!

I went to Ireland with my parents from 9-23 to 10-8, and the LAST thing on my mind, the VERY LAST thing I expected to happen, was to catch a "tube" there!!!! On 9-29, we were at Mizen ("mizzin") Head on the extreme southern coast of Ireland. There is an old, unused lighthouse there, and we were probably close to 1000 feet up on this peninsula, with cliffs all around. Stunning beauty.

Earlier in the morning, like most days in Ireland, I noticed some soft convection. At Mizen Head, we were sitting in a cafe eating some lunch when I glanced out the window and saw this freakin' waterspout. Nice little RFD cut and all. I filmed it and took a few stills for over 7 minutes. It continued after that, but was drifting too far away to continue filming.

Anyone else ever catch a "tube" in Ireland??? Please PM me if you have.

GO ROCKIES AND INDIANS!
