I've been enjoying the new geobloggers, as I enjoy sampling almost all of the science here at ScienceBlogs. I'd like to point out what I perceive to be the biggest remaining gap in the ScienceBlogdom -- you have no actual scientist representing either atmospheric sciences or meteorology here. Perhaps you should do some prospecting.
