• 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.

This is an update regarding new additions to ST over the past week. In an effort to consolidate the things people are looking for when it comes to chasing, we are now working with Helicity and Live Storms Media. Through efforts like these, we hope to direct a very specific and engaged audience to our members' written, image, video, and live feed content while ensuring Stormtrack is the premier one-stop site for all things storm chasing. Micro-communities are back and Stormtrack traffic is better than ever! Check out the new links above - here are short descriptions for each:

Helicity TV contains a ST sponsored curated feed that includes live chase video supplied by LSM, as well as forecast sessions, and roundtable discussions with meteorologists and chasers. This channel will not always have a broadcast. If you are interested in participating in a roundtable/panel forecast or real-time/live storm chase discussion, please message @Justin Allen

LiveChasers is an ST hosted page maintained by Live Storms Media that displays live chaser feeds. The goal here is to help chasers gain visibility from our highly focused site visitor demographic. For more information about streaming live, contact @Tyler Youschak

ST Swag is an online store maintained by Helicity to assist ST with public-facing brand recognition. Proceeds from swag sales help support the Helicity TV concept.

Support ST is where you can donate to support the continued growth of the Stormtrack platform. Now more than ever, storm chasers need a common platform on which to not only discuss the forecast, but also regulatory concerns, and private/public weather sector influences. $1 per month helps a lot and supporters get an ad-free site experience too!

Thank you to everyone who has worked hard to make all of this come together!
 
I noticed those new links along the menu bar!
But honestly I've never looked around anything more than the forum part...
