• 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.

Not sure where to post this but will try here. I've emailed the "contact" address noted on SPC's website but never received a response, so maybe someone here knows.

I'm looking into building a website (for mobile and desktop users) geared towards US & Canadian truckers and wanted to have a "Weather Section" and would like to include the current Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 convective outlook images from the SPC website when the user request to see that particular topic. Does the NOAA site allow this? (Hot linking or inline linking)

I would also like to have a Atlantic Tropical Outlook and Winter Precip Accumulation Forecast map from other NOAA sites.

Thanks in advance.
 
I've seen many a chaser website in my day that had the SWODY 1,2, and 3 Outlooks on the main or secondary page, so it shouldn't be an issue. Looks like we tapped into their RSS feed on our homepage to accomplish the end result.
