It's that of year for our annual site fundraiser. These are used to help us pay the bills, keep us AD free and make upgrades along the way . We ran one over the summer strictly for weather modes and we will use that money for the weather models once we move site hosts . This years goal is just $500 because of the success we've had with previous fundraisers . We appreciate all your support of the years

Honest question for everyone what would folks want to see added to the site?

Models
A premium section
A web build out with live conditions and radar
Blogs
Video

It would be super beneficial to us to know what everyone wants so we can steer in that direction versus doing something that's of little interest.

While people are making suggestions Shane brought up a good point about transparency with our fixed costs so that people who donate and have donated before know where their money is going . This weekend I will post a breakdown of our yearly expenses so everyone can see what their money helps pay for

A good Euro map with rain and snow and snowfall totals that works good on mobile
 
Can you please add the plug-in back to the website so that we can see the list of members and staff who are online when we are logged into the forum? That was really a cool little tool.

That all would be great. Though, I'd be concerned that users of the free/donation edition would lose access to the user posted maps that would be in competition with a premium version.

I'm not sure how that would be navigated.

Maybe some sort of podcast within the YouTube channel? Could have members on to talk
 
What do yall think about the possibility of a daily weather video, updated more for big events, and possibly shows (for big events) as well?
Videos daily would possibly be done by me. Still up in air, but I know I have been talking about it with Shane and Charlie.

Also I do not own PayPal, any other way I can donate such as CashApp or Venmo? I could venmo someone with PayPal and then send it in thru them.

For some reason I'm unable to DM you. Please DM me if you still need assistance.

I like this idea but we would just need to make sure we are consistent with it
