• 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.

The NWS in Pueblo and Boulder Colorado need assistance in documenting what happened on June 4, 2015, with the tornadic storm near Simla, CO. Overall, not much damage was done by this event, even though several tornadoes occurred. They really do not know how many tornadoes occurred on this day, with values ranging from 5 to "dozens" depending who you talk to and what you read. Any maps, *time* of events, locations, and video would be grateful. You can send directly to Stephen Hodanish at [email protected] at the NWS in Pueblo.
 
I have a full 6 hour stream from storm initiation to the moment the updraft disconnected, with virtually every moment of tornado footage possible, sans a few minutes of "rain-wrap". I'm putting the footage together now, hoping to be done in a few days, but if he needs something sooner I can make that happen.
