• 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.

For those of you who live in Kentucky (I know there's a few of you here), there will be a live call in show tonight on KET1 (PBS), in which viewers can call in and ask the panel questions concerning severe weather. John Gordon of the National Weather Service; Chris Bailey, meteorologist at WKYT/Lexington; and Bill Meck, meteorologist at WLEX/Lexington will make up the panel.

I'm sure the program won't be really in-depth, as it's geared toward the public, but it might be interesting for those of you in the area who will have nothing better to do, like me! At least it will give us a chance to see how severe weather smart our residents are by the type of questions they ask. And you never know, it might be more interesting than it appears on the surface.

Anyway, just thought I'd provide a heads-up.

-George
