Kinghorn
The new Kinghorn Weathercam is the first contributor-operated camera on FifeWeather and went live on October the 8th, 2022. It points South South-East from Kinghorn, overlooking the Forth towards East Lothian and includes an overlay of live weather data from a nearby weather station. The island of Inchkeith can be seen towards the right-hand edge of the view and North Berwick Law is just visible on the very left on clear days. My thanks to the operators/owners of this camera (and associated weather station) for providing this exclusive live feed to FifeWeather.co.uk. You can check out the owner's own time-lapse videos and other media from this camera on instagram at https://www.instagram.com/forth_kinghorn/.

Upper Largo
The WeatherCam above Upper Largo, went live on the 28th of February 2016 and provides views looking West/South West from the hills behind Upper Largo, in the East Neuk of Fife. Largo Law can be seen on the right hand side of the frame, whilst the southern coast of Fife can be seen towards the left side. At night, the lights of Leven can be clearly seen, just to the left of centre frame. My thanks to the kind folk at Forth House Caravan Site for accommodating the WeatherCam, at their picturesque location.

St Andrews SkyCam
The all-sky camera, located atop the University of St Andrews, went live on the 13th of July 2016. This unique high-definition camera, provides near 360° views of sky conditions over the St Andrews area and updates once a minute. As the camera is sensitive in the Near Infrared (NIR) spectrum, it is possible to ascertain cloud cover, even at night.
The compass rose in the bottom left-hand corner of the image, indicates the orientation of the SkyCam. Compared to a street map, on which we look down, on the SkyCam image, East and West seem "reversed" because the SkyCam is instead, looking straight up. Imagine you are lying on the ground, looking vertically up to the sky with your feet pointing to the South. West is at your right and east at your left hand side, exactly as it is displayed on the SkyCam's compass rose.
I am hugely grateful to the staff in the Millimetre Wave & ERP Group, at the University of St Andrews, for their assistance with deploying this SkyCam and the St Andrews Weathercam.
