• 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.

Respected Canucky chaser going after Frances

George Kourounis, a well respected Ontario based chaser headed out yesterday to intercept Hurricane Frances. His site and accounts of the adventure can be found here:

George Kourounis

Best of luck George!!

Yep, he's going along with Dave Lewison, Scott McPartland, and Mark Robinson. I talked with Dave this morning and they were traveling through North Carolina on their way to Florida.

Scott Blair's heading toward Florida as well with one of his professors, and they will be deploying equipment to record Frances' landfall.

I'll relay any reports from these two if I can get through to either of them during and/or after the event.

He was interviewed on a morning current events show (Canada AM) wearing the helmet cam. Pretty kewl! My original post had a link to the interview, but the gentleman who had it on his site was taking heat from the media outlets so he had to pull it.

Be well, TR
 
I am pretty sure it was him that was interviewed this morning on Fox News channel via cell phone. If I am mistaken please correct me.
