• 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've been trying to keep out of the heat and do a few things inside, yet still thinking about all things weather.
I started reminiscing about the two years I lived in Santa Fe, NM, went to ChaserCon, & kept John Farley's storm calendar on my wall for a year!
Going through some pre-2024 photo-files, I got to thinking... have some of you gotten interesting shots from the Land of Enchantment?

Well, okay...
I lived in Los Alamos NM for 13 years. On August 8 1999 I got this on video. Here are two video captures. I had just started chasing two months prior. It would be two more years before I bought my first computer and joined ST.

This is looking south from the deck of my house. I believe it may have been a tornado as the local paper later reported a large tree was felled (IIRC) right around there, which was near the hospital. No tornado was reported. The elevation there is 7300 feet. Hey! Just realized that was 25 years ago today.
