Weather Cam, camera to view the sky line (as we have a nice one) to record the weather conditions. My lovely dutch neighbors on the eastern side of the weather station have an issue with web cams, hence it is not live yet. They have the genetics to complain about everything they can get their minds around and I believe this is now complaint topic number 10 along with smelly cows, rainwater run off etc. They actually steal equipment from my property, and are succesfully identified by the police as the individuals stealing from my property, another good reason to put a security camera up. So give it some time and I will add the life weather feed, they are Dutch (the irony of it all) and the berg (Dutch for mountain) of complaints and annoyance is getting bigger and bigger, I hope one day they come to their senses. ++Update, the local law enforcement came out to have a look and the complaint from my neighbor was found "having no grounds" and the camera is in the clear. ++ |
