This live camera looks out over Oswego, a lakeside city on the southeast shore of Lake Ontario in upstate New York. It is a good way to check conditions on the water and in town before you travel or simply to see what the lake looks like today.

About Oswego

Oswego sits where the Oswego River meets Lake Ontario, at roughly 86 metres above sea level. The city grew around its harbour and canal system and has long been tied to shipping, fishing and trade on the Great Lakes. Its waterfront, historic streets and the nearby university campus give it a calm, working-lakeside character that changes with the seasons.

What to watch and when

The stream is best appreciated in daylight, when you can follow changes in cloud cover, wind on the water and the colour of the lake. In winter, ice and snow can transform the shoreline, while summer evenings tend to be the busiest time on the harbour. Because the view depends on the weather, the live conditions here are most useful for judging what to expect at that moment.

Climate and getting around

Oswego has a humid continental climate with warm summers and cold, snowy winters, and lake effect weather can bring sudden changes. Late spring through early autumn is generally the most comfortable period to visit. The Fair Haven and Pulaski cameras are useful companions if you want to compare conditions along the southern lake shore.
