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.

Yesterday I was skiing just west of my town (Pajarito mtn.) and they shut down the lifts because of lightning. First time I've ever seen "thunder snow" at ~10,000 feet.....especially rare in late February. 0.75 inch hail was reported with that storm (along with heavy snow) just south of Los Alamos.
On a side note, if anyone is planning a ski trip....New Mexico has some of the best snow in many years right now....its awesome!

Hey, Kurt, it was cool, wasn't it! Second time this winter, too.
I was driving down in Barry County yesterday after church, just putzing around the backroads on a whim, when I saw the first flash and heard the first rumble. More followed at irregular intervals. Man, I just love a good potpourri! Now let's get this stinkin' snow outta here, start pumping in some good old Gulf moisture, and give that thunder and lightning an honest job. :lol:

The higher elevations of the Southwest have been getting convective snow showers just about every single day for the past week from that slow moving upper level low....ran to them while driving out there last Saturday (the 19th)....and had to deal with them again while driving back yesterday (the 26th). Even saw a flash of lightning during a snow/graupel/small hail shower near Flagstaff yesterday. I was amazed to see how much snow was on the ground in the mountains east of Cedar City UT....deep enough that highway signs were almost completely submerged!
