• 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.

As a few of you here know, I'm currently in the research phase of a book about thunderstorms and tornadoes, that will be targeted mainly at the young adult/high school student demographic.

I wanted to include a section in the book about significant tornadoes, so I'll definitely be gathering information about the Greensburg event.

The availability of some pictorials is pivotal to this section, and since I was an hour north of Greensburg that night, I wasn't fortunate enough to get photographs.

I would like to see if someone here would be willing to give me permission to reprint a good video cap of the wedge, as well as a high-res image of the radar velocity couplet.

The payoff, of course, will be additional publicity/exposure for the photographer.

Any help would be deeply appreciated. Replies may be posted to this thread, or sent via PM.
