SOUTHCHILCOTIN.CA INFORMATION
The webcam is mounted 50 feet up a repeater tower, elevation 3500 feet. It is rated to operate to -40f and will be operating all year long. Images are uploaded every 30 seconds from sunrise to sunset. The image looks the best in the morning when the sun shines on it. In the late afternoon the sun is in the image and as a result backlighting occurs making the image appear darker. If the image is white, that means it was blowing snowing really hard last night, right at the camera. Unfortunately we have to wait for the sun to melt the snow off the lens.
The camera has a weather station that appears on the top of the image reporting the current temperature, humidity and barometer reading.
A time lapse movie is created of the days weather where an image is captured every 10 minutes. Click here to watch.
CAN'T SEE THE WEBCAM IMAGE?

We like Firefox. If the webcam image is not refreshing we are experiencing a power outage.
