• 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.

Identify the tornado — part II

If it were taken from Sarkey's I would think with the Library in sight it would be looking to the S-SW. I think Moore is to far to the north for it to be that one, but I could be wrong. I can't believe a tornado could pass this close to OU and not have 400 pics of it online.

I was thinking the same thing. Also, I think you may be right about the incorrect identification, though with the tornado moving on a general NEerly track i was thinking it would be able to move far enough north that it would track into Moore. It appears to be a very well developed tornado and it has some visual similarities to the May 8 storm, so for lack of a better choice I'll stick with 8 May 2003.

Again, GREAT photo.

New tornado...this is a recent one.

First off I think this contest is an awesome idea! This tornado below was one of the strongest and most destructive tornadoes of 2004.

I considered entering this tornado because it happened only 20 miles from my house, but it would be way unfair because it hit nothing of consequence and is therefore very obscure. Beautiful tornado thoughhttp://www.crh.noaa.gov/mkx/document/tor/images/tor052304/052304-b.jpg

So can these be photoshopped on this thread?

You're right, probably should be split into a photoshopping thread... could be fun.

I was going to say PhotoShop on my first response but I saw some chic get crucified for that a few months back on the mailing list, even though the pic turned out to be a fake for real. Your's was a good fake though, I took it into photoshop to do adjustments to see if I could find any faults. Could not find any so TRADD will be calling you for sure!
