I have selected a weather city (in Florida) to be displayed on my home page. It keeps changing to New York. How can I stop this from happening?

on my home page I have selected a city in Florida to display the current weather there. However the city I have selected keeps changing to New York every time I sign back on. How can this be corrected?

Maybe the site uses cookies to help remember your choice. If you use private browsing, or clear cookies or clean them up with some utility that may result in the site defaulting to something else such as the capital city. See
