Web Cameras and Fairbanks Weather Links

Camera and Internet connections generously provided by Mercury Data Group

There's one camera, but it's being fed in two different ways. If one fails, hopefully the other will continue.

NOTE: Neither camera feed will be in-sync with the radio coverage. They take different paths, with different delays due to encoding. Both may interfere with the audio stream over slow connections.

The camera with the better updating is a service through Teveo.com:

[It appears there's a limit of about 15 simultaneous connections--and by then it's really slowed down the refresh rate. If you can't connect, that may be the reason.]

This camera seems to have frozen on an image from late Saturday afternoon--even if you can get through to it, you might not see anything--although the clock is changing.  Sorry!  We don't have access to the building on Sunday.

ONAC CAMERA VIA TEVEO

THE TEVEO FEED WILL TAKE OVER 1 MINUTE TO INITIALLY LOAD. Be patient. Once loaded, it should update in almost full-motion, depending upon network and server loads. It may very well crash completely!

The snapshot feed has been taken offline to see if we can keep the Teveo up and running.

OTHER LOCAL CAMERAS AND WEATHER INFO:

The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner ArcticCam looks south, over the river to downtown Fairbanks, right across the start/finish line--but you can't see it. The ONAC webcam is on the brown building right of center, on the 5th floor, looking out the left side down onto the river. The tall center building is the Marriott Springhill Suites Hotel. They may have high speed Internet next year so we may have a camera there.

Before or after the race, watch the ArcticCam for dog trucks coming or leaving the holding area, which is down the road to the right at the bottom of the picture. You need to manually refresh your browser to update the picture.

The Alaska Climate Center at the University of Alaska Fairbanks has a nice view across the airport towards the Alaska Range and provides current weather conditions. During calm weather, it will often be ten degrees (F) warmer here than on the river.

The National Weather Service provides Fairbanks forecasts, current local conditions and hourly regional conditions.
