• 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.

Has anyone watched this dvd?If so what are your opinions.Would this video be helpful in training new spotters or would it be over thier heads.Any feedback would be helpful.Thanks Jason
 
I watched this a couple weeks ago. I think its an excellent teaching resource for a more advanced spotter class. This presentation touches on some of the basics, but was really designed to explain things in some detail and discuss the science involved. Its really a great tool to improve upon anyone's base knowledge of radar interpretation with real life examples. Its long and a bit boring, but its a solid presentation with loads of great information.
 
Is the TESSA 2005 still the best training DVD on the market today; or has there been an upgrade?
I'm in the market for a DVD that can help me get to know radar signatures and general storm structures and related training before next season.
So - what's new - or best?
