My favorite web cams where I fly.

Here is mine. KPFC Pacific City Oregon. I go here as much as I can. It is a 40 minute flight from home.

This web cam is a short 1 mile walk north on the beach. Pacific City is a small town. Population 1060 The strip is smack dab in the middle of town. This is perfect for walking to a half dozen restaurants. There is a store too. The beach is a 5 minute walk from the air strip.

Right now:

Good read: http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/predictions/90day/fxus05.html

This year is predicted to be warmer and wetter, but I hope the climatologists are proven wrong.

It's not global warming anymore, the correct term is now "climate change". :roll:

Around here if the ski resorts open by Thanksgiving it is considered a good year. They have been opened for a week now. 3 feet of the white stuff.

Global warming or global climate change has always been around. IMO PEOPLE don't cause it or stop it. This is a sham to separate you from your money and freedom. =D>

If you are confused, read further.

It is a.
Christmas tree. NOT A Holiday tree.
Christmas carols. NOT Seasonal songs.
Christmas break. NOT Winter break.
Merry Christmas. NOT Happy Holidays.
Weather. NOT Global anything.
