• 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 time it is not me - Estonian Meteorological and Hydrological Institute is forecasting rain for afternoon hours mainly in Eastern parts of Estonia and thunderstorms are not ruled out. I expected such forecast because tomorrow's highs are expected to be up to 70 degrees. Highs on Wednesday are expected to be only up to 53 degrees.

Very bad timing for me. I will be out of home all day tomorrow(school and astronomy lecture in Tartu Old Observatory later that day). Last year I had the same curse - 1 actually even missed one powerful storm due to school. This time I am going to take my minicam (serving as webcam) with me.

At the weekend, it will be already snowing and next time with temperatures 60's is in unknown future
 
Estonian weather enthusiasts were yesterday awake until late hours to track the situation. According to lightning radars, there were some thunderstorms in Estonia. I didn't have any, but there were occasional showers. Following is an overview of AM band late yesterday:


However, EMHI did a great job. They forecasted a chance of thunderstorms and according to lightning radars, they were right. Latvia had some very strong radar echoes later yesterday indicating rain strength over an inch per hour.

At the moment, air temperature is 39,4 degrees.
