• 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.

Chase Case #2

I too am moving up US 81 coming from Concordia for Hebron Nebraska. I'm thinking that the north target should get going by 23z or so. Either way I'm still happy as I have spent virtually $0 on gas...lol
 
I'll be leaving Paducah, TX headed southwest, methodically working my way towards the Midland/Odessa area. Lotta daylight left and in good position, so no worries.
 
Its still looking fairly well capped in Nebraska, however CU are starting to build around the Triple Point.

I'm down in the Eastern Texas panhandle city of Wheeler, TX and I've got a cell popping about 60 miles to my Southwest. I'm going to let that thing mature and head right toward me. I'm pretty certain I'll have myself a severe storm, but the LCLs are sky high, so I have little hope for a tornado out here.
 
I am still putting my money on the northern target getting going by 23z, so I will likely stay put here in Belleville, KS and move once I see signs of initiation. Best of luck to those playing the southern angle.
 
From my 21:30 UTC position in Concordia, I'll hop north and east to Fairbury, NE and arrive by 23 UTC - shouldn't have to worry about being late to the show, judging by the current vis sat/radar imagery.
 
After grabbing a bite to eat in Elm Creek I am going to move east towards Wood River, NE. It seems like a decent place to hang out and watch the Cu field to the northeast while holding true to my original target at Holdrege.
 
I think I'll stick it out here at my initial target of Phillipsburg, KS and watch these towers go up to the west. I've got the car pointed north and ready to go if things start firing in southern NE.
 
Glad I left Emporia several hours ago and worked my way into S. NE. I did not go back to Beatrice after my last chase. So, I will look at the 13 streets of Auburn now.
 
Time for me to go east from phillipsburg to 81. Probably going to head N into Nebraska, towards Hebron. Ive seen a good chunk of Kansas today. Time for a change of scenery

At my 21Z multi-purpose Phillipsburg, KS, stop. Cell going up near me could blow and worth keeping an eye on. But have decided not to divert for it and to get north to I-80 ASAP. Keeping to original plan of 23/00Z at Wood River by way of Elm Creek at 22:15Z. If this cell warns in the next hour I'll take US136, NE4, or US34 east to close with it.
