Cleanup images are the results of neighbors hard work during the week after the flood and the following weekend. Considerable improvement but much remains. Catamaran image is of visitors from of all places, Arkansas who admired our beach and the efforts to clean it. First two images are immediately after the flood debris came ashore.

You have to click on the map to zoom into the bay region and then click on each ship icon to get its details.

I like the idea of historic pix too. I’ve added these links the new Weather page. I like the idea of historic pix too.

Will there be a way to attach pics to comments or am I missing something?

Also, additions to the Weather links that I find useful are the NOAA Chesapeake Bay Operational Forecast: http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/ofs/cbofs/cbofs.html Wind forecast: http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/ofs/cbofs/wind_nowcast.shtml ACT Weather instruments from Solomons: (slow to load today) http://www.act-us.info/weather/WxFlash/index.html and http://www.act-us.info/weather/mainnew.html The revised site looks nice and I would like to see a photos section, if space permits, subdivided into sections like recent events, Old events, and historic images that individuals feel would be of interest.

I'd love to see more weather reporting, especially after any weather event. I want to know, was the community evacuated by the police/fire?, how far is the marsh out of its "banks" - across Lighthouse Blvd. for example?, did the Bay have breakers closer to homes than normal storm conditions or did it stay at the ends of the public walks?, what about electricity and trees down. Photos would be wonderful, but just having some general info would be most helpful. In the winter, snow depth or extreme cold would also help us to plan any "emergency" visits to help our Cove Point home. Thanks for any info that you could provide.

If you have any recommendations or want to contribute periodically yourself, that would be great. Sounds good to me.

That someone would be a Cove Point resident or at least a resident of So. Calvert Co. with an intense interest in the area and emphasis on Cove Point. In lieu of that, perhaps a link to a local blogger with such an interest.
