Here's one for everyone while we wait for the Super Bowl to start.

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'm gonna guess that day Verne nailed all of those naders in Colorado in 2004 or 2005, I'm not sure the date.
Edit: After doing some investigating on Youtube is it the storm from May 10, 2004?

I need to start thinking outside of the box!

Yeah, May 10, 2004 would have been my first guess. I remember this date well. At the time, it was our most successful chase day, and we weren't even sure we would make the storm in time. Upon seeing the cell initially pop, we picked up our speed and raced across what must have been the westernmost 1/3 of KS to intercept near Limon, CO. Our view was more from the east side than Verne's from a few miles north of town. To this day I wish we had moved closer, perhaps along the interstate. At the time, I thought the cell had a slightly more northeastward component to its motion, so we thought it would move toward us. Fortunately, it only moved at around 10 mph, all the while producing several picturesque tornadoes. I have to admit, I like the lighting and proximity with Verne's video a bit more than ours

I would have guessed it right! That was a very exciting storm to keep up with. I loved all the tornadoes!!! Good day to remember!
