New Blog

For those that are following this blog, I have moved to a new blogging service and integrated it fully into my website. If you go to http://www.marylandwx.com you will see that the homepage is now the blog.

I have been wanting to make the blog a bigger part of the site and update it much more frequently.

The one draw back is, the new service doesn't allow for instant emailing of a new blog post, so if you are signed up to receive an email when I post, you will no longer have that. I did set up a mailing list with the new site that will send an email between 5pm and 7pm of any new posts made in the previous 24 hours. I know this isn't ideal, but I am hoping with the new layout of the website, most people will be able to see the latest blog posts right on the homepage. If you want to sign up to receive this daily digest email, simply click on the black envelope icon under the "Stay Connected!" section of the left menu bar.

Thanks for the support and for following Maryland Weather! I hope you enjoy the new site layout!
