1,000 Posts Later

It’s hard to beleive that we’ve posted 1,000 stories on the weather blog.  We started with a page on the main WJACTV.com website.  That didn’t have enough adaptability, so we moved to Blogger and later to WordPress.  We’ve been on WordPress for a while now.

This is officially our 1,000th post according to the stats system that we use.  I have a feeling that we hit 1,000 a while ago, but this is a great opportunity to look back and see some of the cooler topics we’ve talked about over the last 3 years.

Below the jump is a list of 13 categories with some of the cooler topics.  You can click on the category to go to a list of the posts about that topic.  Click in for the list. (Read More)

Elections and Weather

Tomorrow is Election Day and people all across the Alleghenies (and the country) will be getting out to vote.  While talking to a colleague yesterday, we started wondering if there was a trend or connection between the weather and voter turnout.

My predictions going into this:

  1. When the weather is warm, the voter turnout is higher.
  2. Rain keeps people away from the polls.
  3. Snow keeps more people away from the polls.

To read all about my findings, click into the post.
