Scootercam.net is a weather station and webcam outpost clinging to the edge of Lake Michigan – an ongoing experiment in captured time. The basic mission hasn’t changed – deliver the weather, and deliver some pretty pictures. Do it for the tiniest of audiences. Then, keep doing it.
This blog is a running log of weather, water, technical tinkering, and the strange satisfaction of observing something that refuses to repeat itself. Some of the notes and posts are technical background and how-it-works, others are more pointless.
Scootercam Worldwide LLC was created in 2025 to give this site the opportunity of a future. We’ve set up a Patreon so you can subscribe your support, for as little as $3 a month. All funds go to the site’s operating fund and helps pay for domain fees, hosting and equipment costs, and the rest. We don’t expect any new capital expenditures, hopefully, as we’ve replaced everything in late 2025. With luck, support now pays ahead on the site’s future. I appreciate the support!
