About Madison
Madison sits at about 490 metres above sea level in Lake County, in the flat farmland of eastern South Dakota. It is best known as the home of Dakota State University and as a regional centre for agriculture and education. The surrounding landscape is mostly rolling prairie, dotted with farms, small lakes and shelterbelts of trees planted against the wind.
What to watch on the camera
Because the land here is open and flat, skies play a large role in the view, and clouds move quickly across the horizon. Mornings and late afternoons usually bring the softest light. Seasons change the scene noticeably: green fields in summer, harvested land in autumn, and snow cover in winter. Depending on the view, you may also notice weather fronts building over the prairie.
Climate and getting around
Madison has a continental climate with hot summers, cold winters and windy spring weather. Late spring and early autumn are generally the most comfortable seasons for visiting. The city is about an hour's drive north of Sioux Falls, and the lakes of Lake Preston lie within the wider region. Nearby cameras on this page cover Lake Preston, Spencer and Sioux Falls.
