• 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.

Southern Cyclone causes tornado outbreak in Poland and Slovakia

European Storm Forecast experiment has issued a special report that a tornado outbreak is underway in Southern and Central Poland and possibly in Slovakia.

I tuned to Polish TV station TVP Info, and it also showed live shot of intense lightning and possily reports of storm damages. I am not too good at Polish though, so I only could understand portions of their coverage.

Now this so-called Southern cyclone is heading towards the Baltics, and GFS is for example forecasting lifted index below -5 to my home, and CAPE over 1500 J/kg. I will keep you posted how will this situation be unfolding in our area. National thunderstorm warning has been issued by EMHI and looks like it is going to be long night and long day for us here in the Baltics.

EDIT: Sorry. I noticed now that while I was typing this, another post was posted exactly with the same bulletin, please delete this one, and I apologize for double post.
