Useful webcam sites of the Misty area
« on: January 10, 2013, 11:48:50 AM »
Hi guys,

When I'm thinking of flapping my wings I usually have a look at Google Maps and look for an interesting area to explore. 

But...one of the other things I do (as well as the maps) is to look for webcams in that area to view a snapshot of the current weather. 

By viewing the webcam I also get a general idea of what that area might look like/resemble in FSX or X-Plane. 

Here are some great sites:

Again, apologies if you use these already or have seen them before :)

If you haven't seen them, then I hope you like them :D.

Cheers

Dom

Hi Dom

We agree. I've got the KPU website cams embedded at Misty's Place. I do this so folks can check the weather conditions there before flying. When the little float planes are all lined up in the dock, it is better to go find a nice warm fire to sit next to. The web cams can make it all come alive...it is a real place!
