Just a heads up, to whom it may concern, looks like the RadarScope - SN client is having a little time stamp issue again unfortunately. Attempted to post a total snow report at 17:03:56 UTC Feb 1, 2021, though it defaulted to 00:00 Nov 30, 2020. Would it be best to send them out via the SN website? I just feel bad for having multiple instances of an innacurate timestamp.

As far as the reports are concerned, since we're well aware of the issue, we've been monitoring it and haven't been marking them as bad because it's clearly not your fault.

Good afternoon Steven! I appreciate your response that is relieving to know the timestamp issue wonā€™t be dinged. And that sounds good, I ended up producing a follow up report an hour later via the website, worked perfectly with time, narrative, etc. Lastly, to clarify, iOS and just recently updated to the latest iOS and RS version if that helps. @Steven Heicher (Nashville, TN)

Just an update from Brendan via Discord.
 
This is a little off topic but I submitted a report on Spotter Network yesterday Feb 14th and got a low rating. What I saw at time of report did not match correct time so I thought I corrected it. Little annoying as I thought I was doing correct thing.
 
What report number?

The SN timestamp is in UTC. Are you sure it was showing the incorrect time?
