• 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.

weather quiz!

I suppose no one is going to get this, and I don't want this thread to die, because it is fun. The answer can be seen in a newspaper clipping from my private collection of tornado stuff:

How can you expect someone to know that kinda stuff? This should be a weather trivia, not a quiz about people.

To answer Sam's question and to add to Mike's answer, it was Yoshi Sasaki.
 
I suppose both Mike and Laura should each get to ask a question now, as your collaboration led to the correct answer: Yoshi Sasaki in 1960.

Good Job, Guys!
 
Although some people do mistakenly use "collar cloud" as a synonym for "wall cloud" - the collar cloud is something entirely different. The synonym I'm looking for is actually still in use today - although it is quite obscure. Any guesses?


EDIT.....if nobody gets this by 11pm CST, I'll post the answer
