This camera looks out over Lake Union, a freshwater lake in the middle of Seattle that is busy with boats, seaplanes and waterfront activity. It is a practical way to check how the lake and the city's skyline look before you go out. The page also shows the local time and weather for Seattle.

About Lake Union

Lake Union sits between Queen Anne, Capitol Hill and the Fremont and Wallingford neighbourhoods, linked to Lake Washington and Puget Sound by canals. The city around it is known for its maritime history, houseboats and a mix of tech offices and parks. The lake is ringed with paths, marinas and cafes, and on clear days the surrounding hills and Cascade foothills frame the water. Seattle's rainy, cloud-heavy reputation is real, but the lake area is especially pleasant when the sky opens up.

What to watch on the camera

Depending on the view, you may see boat traffic on the water, floatplanes taking off and landing, and the shoreline lit up in the evening. Activity is usually busiest on weekends and on warm, sunny afternoons when people head to the waterfront. Early mornings tend to be calm, with mist sometimes sitting on the water. Conditions change quickly in this part of the Pacific Northwest, so the live image is the best guide to what is happening right now.

Climate and getting around

Seattle has mild, wet winters and dry, comfortable summers, with the driest and sunniest weather usually from July to September. Spring and early autumn are good for walking the lake path. The city's tram, bus and light rail network makes the area accessible, and nearby cameras in Capitol Hill, Seattle Large and Stadium Place offer more views of the city if you want to compare conditions across town.
