My snow guage

so I have my Foscam out focused on my snow guage  and Louie has his opinion of it.  The upside is that the camera works

ha ha ha, it's good he didn't hit the rain gauge. Your "4 consecutive days without rain" in your banner would have updated.

Don't use the yellow snow for snow-creme.

it is a Foscam FI8910W.

The picture is through the window, and it is a double pane thermal window as that.  I have the IR turned off at night because of the reflection back .  I am using ISPY for the recording software and to move the camera as it is PTZ.    Not bad for an IP camera.
