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 saw some striatures near Pratt but I did abandon my sculpted supercell and headed to the Pratt's party: I couldn't resist
See ya the next party.

Wow. Didn't see any tornadoes in the northern Texas panhandle but was on a storm dropping 4.25" sized hail. Hopefully I was careful or the next day would have been spent getting the windshield replaced instead of chasing in Nebraska.

No kiddin... what happened to the blackhawks?!?
** Any requests for data to be provided in the next one? I'm starting at 12z and along with upper air, soundings and surface plots I'm going to show some mesoanalysis data and maybe some RUC data if I can figure out the archive at Earl's wxcaster.

LOL! No problem! Those waking up in Pratt with a hangover better get north and east quickly or we're going to miss a monster in Nebraska!

Yeah I think Daykin NE is a good place to be Dick ....northbound for Day 2. Maybe this time I won't choose the big HP monster up by Fremont. That one had huge hail but was a big mess to chase.
05/21/04...I was at a Dairy Queen in west Omaha that night...you could read a newspaper from the lightning 60 mi. to my N-NW. And I had no idea what the next day held...

I've apparently been concurrently working on a case study as well. I've got a boatload of maps, including some model forecast data that we can use along with the surface data from the morning. I'll post it probably later tonight ... as either Case #2 or #3 depending on if Chad got his posted before mine.

Looks like I ended up on the Bradgate TOR, of course I couldnt really see it anyway so it didnt matter.

Pretty much a bust for me. I guess I could count it as a visit to my dad in Stafford, KS. Looking forward to the next one. Thanks for putting these together!

As I didnt have a chance to see any of the updated reports, my original point of el Reno was not the best, but had I been out there for real, I would have headed North, but catching anything this trip would seem doubtful

I was late to this party, but just looking at the maps and picking an initial target and making adjustments with each update, I would have targeted an area around Hays and drifted toward Salina, KS. I probably would have waited the dry line out in this area trying to decide whether or not to move north. I probably would have stayed south. Iowa was way outside of my area.

Found the girls that washed the chase van back in 2004 in Norfolk and setup a little party for later that evening...(this really happened, local cheerleading squad was having a fundraiser 4 years ago). They all have to be over 18 now.
I still can't get over this one ... hahahaha ... love the guy in the van with the cam out.
