Common sense isn't.
These Cams all belong to other sites. All credits go to the original sites for providing the images. The images here are linked to the original sites, and are brought together here for the purpose of a "panoramic view" of the area, with review and commentary. Therefore, this should be allowable "fair use." If you see it differently, let me know.
Technically, this page is an exception to the "no web bugs" rule. The original sites' logs will show requests for their images when they are viewed here; however, there is no coordinated tracking (as far as I know).
The images do not all automatically reload here, so hit Reload for this page or follow the links to the original sites to get the images to update.
Nothing like re-organizing every couple years...

First was the closest thing to a TVA
Windmill cam.
In previous years, when there were only 3 "smaller" windmills, I never saw the windmills in the cam images, although it was pointed in the right direction.
As seen in the photo excerpt from 2006-May-14, with the new improved cam,
on a clear day you can could (barely) see the
windmills on the distant ridge. In the live cam (below) you are were seeing the far (second)
ridge on the horizon if, well, you see 2 ridges.
Otherwise, on cloudier days you
only see the closer local in-town ridge (or less). At night, well,
there's only the lights at the mall.

Their building and camera are roughly

Oak Ridge mall area. (

There once was a

Now it seems to be completely gone.
