• 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.

Inside a Recent Milan Italy Tornado

It's amazing that this photographer didn't get seriously injured. This video shows huge wads of debris virtually surrounding his office building, swirling outside his window. It's one of the most spectacular tornado videos I've seen, and interestingly shot from an European locale.
 
Stephen, we're not new to tornadoes in that zone. For example, that place was hit by three EF2-EF3 tornadoes (don't ask me if EF2 or EF3 because I don't remember) from 2001 to 2013. Another strong tornado touched down in May just close to Trezzo d'Adda.
It's a mistery zone such as the El Reno-Ok City zone or Greensburg zone where tornadoes tend to touch down more easily.

By the way I am really amazed at how those glasses did stand up to the pieces of sheet irons, it seems impossible they made it to not fall to pieces.
