• 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.

Highest Winds in 115 Years Wreak Havoc in Colorado Springs, CO

This is my home.

Wind gusts ranged between 80mph in eastern Colorado Springs, to over 100mph in western Colorado Springs. The winds started around midnight, and will continue through about 8pm this evening.

These were the highest winds experienced in Colorado Springs since November, 1900.

This was the first time since December, 2010 that the Colorado Springs Emergency Operations Center was activated.

It's been like an EF0 tornado blowing through town for 20 hours straight, at times reaching EF1 strength.

We've had over 20 semis blown over, leading to the closure of 160 miles of I-25 from Monument to the New Mexico state line for all commercial vehicles. There were over 300 power outages. Numerous downed trees and roofs blown off.
