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.

- Midwest
- F5 tornado
- Wiped out town almost completely
- the circus was in town so the fatality rate was very high
- produced heavy rains in neighboring state
Decided to start over.

You are correct. Your turn.

- A tornado outbreak in Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin.
- At least 1 F4 tornado.
- 9 fatalities.
- Within an hour of the tornado, survivors were working in blizzard-like conditions and near zero temps trying to rescue people trapped in the debris.

You got it!! I wouldn't mind another storm like that - so long as it doesn't affect any towns this time!

Also that date Kansas City set a record high AND low that day. I believe some towns in the midwest experienced 60-75 degree swings in temperature that day.

That would be amazing to experience!

-at least 23 dead in two states
-EF4 torndado
-deadliest tornado in a certain tornado hot bed state in nearly 20 years
-leveled a town that was featured in USA Today the day before as a mining town turned ghost town
Probably a bit too easy, but a storm that is near and dear to me.

Very close Doug, but a part of that is wrong.

May 10th, 2008: The Pitcher, OK EF4 tornado.
(do I get a cookie?)
This day is easy to remember for several reasons. The first being that the town I live in was also hit by a tornado this day, the next being the fact that I was suckered into chasing/busting in SE Oklahoma like many others were when I could have just stayed home, and lastly because I was in Seneca, MO with several other chasers (Tyler Constantini, Russel Parsons, and Joey Ketchum) that night trying to help out as best as we could.
