Each day, a two-minute timelapse video of previous day’s skycam images will be created. Some of these will be uploaded to YouTube, and on Weather Station website, there is now a new page, YouTube Video Gallery, where those videos can be played.

Weather Station Nagu will start publishing skycam timelapse videos on YouTube. Here is the first one, taken on June 6, 2020 which was quite a stormy day.
