• 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.

TWC Forecast

Is that Fahrenheit, Celsius or Kelvin? No matter the units, It is below absolute temperature. What happens when you get colder than molecular stand-still?
It would result in a black hole. Electrons stop spinning around the nucleus, they are pulled inward. Everything collapses.

OK prepare for the end of the world.

The Weather Channel switched to the Marny (°M) scale last week. Not all the Weatherstar boxes have caught up with it. The conversion is:

°M = (°F - 32) * 5 / 9 - 32760

You people need to get on the ball.

The low of -32770 seems quite impressive - but what interests me more is this "high of F" they're forecasting. I wonder how hot (or cold) it has to be where they start measuring the temperature in letters?????

BTW, it goes...

Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... MASS HYSTERIA!

I've tried converting this via my TI-83 conversion, and it gave me an error reading that it couldn't calculate anything below absolute zero!

Speaking of black holes, this is what I stumbled across..

And that still doesn't come close! :lol:
 
This was a bad day for TWC. First, poor Jen Carfagno gets tangled in cables and falls while coming off the steps. Now this!

BTW, if temps really get that cold, that will wreak havoc on our energy bill this month! :lol:
