• 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.

To keep the subject alive on one of the best morning weather shows in our history, I found this particular piece of work on the internet which brings alot of information on to the demise of a weather geeks' only reason to get up at 6:45 in the morning.

(Note the article was written in 1995 so any chance of revival of this program is in my opinion slight to nill with the internet's rapid growth and availability of pertinent information.)
 
I noticed in the past an aviation weather segment on the Discovery wings channel, but I don't know if it exists anymore since that persona has (I think) morphed into the Military channel.

Nothing like AM Weather, though.
 
If you all want to see an example of A.M. Weather from the 1980s, let me know. I'm assuming that it's not too hard to find, but if you're coming up dry I'll transcode a copy into WMV format, free for anyone to circulate.

I remember getting up early before school to catch A.M. Weather back in the early 90s. This was usually on days when snow or severe weather was expected.
 
Ahhh, AM Weather. I loved that show and I liked the winds graphics they had out. I remember them being pretty accurate and their weather maps look a lot better than the local TV station formats. In my area, it was shown on KETV channel 2.
