• 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.

I thought I'd post a favorite pictures of 2014 thread. I didn't have too many chances to get out this year but I did have a few successful chases photography wise.


March 27th of 2014 was my favorite chase of the year, and the storm right in my backyard in Allen, TX! Luckily I was already out shooting the sunset so I didn't even really have to move.


Canon 6d with 24-105L lens, F8 and .5 seconds ISO 400. 8 shot vertical pano.

My next favorite day was May 7th near Henrietta, Tx and then a bit farther north near Waurika:

Shot near Henrietta close to the end of the storms life. I loved the contrast of the sun and darkness on the right.

The second storm of the day, up near Waurika. We went East a ways to capture the incredible structure of this storm.

Shot from earlier in the day as the Henrietta storm was first getting going.


May 24th was another fun day in far West TX:


Beautiful storm that chased us for most of the day. This was near sunset east of Fort Stockton. Canon 6d with 24-105L lens. 10 Vertical shot pano.


A bit earlier in the day. The hail core with this storm was intense. Canon 6d with 24-105L lens.


Finally, a bust chase day on May 8th up in southern KS ended with an incredible sunset.

The setting sun through the rain and virga made an incredible view. Canon 6d and 14mm Samyang.
