• 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.

First High Risk of 2008?

2/27 Tennessee, N half of Alabama and Mississippi, extreme SW Kentucky, S tip of Illinois
 
March 9th

W Arkansas, far SE OK, NE Texas, NW Lousiana.. Ends up producing only 2 EF 0 tornados and a line of storms....
 
Ahh, always love to guess.. (and dreaming it comes true.. )

Feb 24. OK, AR, KS
 
Huge grain of salt needed here

Feb. 18: Ne LA, E AR, S MS, Sw AL. Circulation around Bermuda high sets up good moisture flow from the Gulf, rapidly moving CF comes in from Nw. Atmosphere in front of the front becomes strongly destablized. Cap will be weak, and the speed of the front produces tremendous lift that easily fires off storms. Individual cells are short-lived, but development of new storms is continuous. Shear is questionable, so main threats will be flash flooding, large hail, and strong winds.

Well, somebody said to have fun with it, didn't they?
 
My guess, based mostly on my own perceived climatology:

March 5th -- TX, LA, MS (i.e.the northwestern Gulf coast area)
 
March 7 - Illinois and Indiana

Seriously, Illinois will finally remember how to produce tornadoes in 2008 and I can save a few bucks with a local chase every once in a while.
 
Andrew knock it off. This is a harmless way of relieving SDS and having a little fun. Stop blowing it out of proportion.
 
First high risk really should've been yesterday given that the count exceeded the 20+ number :(
