Northern Skycam

The sky camera is orientated to point true north from the weather station at an angle of approximately 45° and captures a new image every 2 minutes. The time stamped image is uploaded to this website at the same interval using the Weather Station software and is refreshed automatically. The camera stops taking images during the hours of darkness. If you look at the example "night time" image below you'll see why!

To help you identify cloud types we have placed a number of images and brief descriptions in the section on Cloud Formations
