• 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.

Just wanted to get everyones thoughts on the latest 48 hour forecast.

That looks like one mean storm in the pacific. Cant quite tell but the Ccenter looks to be around 960mb. The amount of precip is also considerable as well. I am imaging the worst for the Northwest, can anyone confirm what can be expected?

I dont see much for forecasts but on the latest Hazards Briefing, The entire west coast is looking at "heavy Rain and/or snow and Strong winds in Southern California. Some personal thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Personally, I am always confused by those systems. They appear in almost every model run.. For example, this storm really never makes any progress in this forecast. So if anyone else knows why these systems are in tons of model runs, yet it never seems like they do much, help me out!
