5 Years Of WXnation.com: The WXnation.com Web site went online 5 years ago today. You can see how the site looked in its infancy. It’s been my honor to provide you with weather and webcam links, and I thank you for coming here or to our city pages on good and bad weather days. I hope you will continue to visit and find the site useful in the years to come. Before I end my speech, the person I must thank the most, by far, is my wife. She has been extremely patient over the countless hours that I’ve been working on the site, yet through all of the hurricane, severe weather and winter storm coverage, she’s been very supportive. Thanks, princess!
