CFHT CloudCam Images
CFHT CloudCams are highly specialized cameras designed to image the night sky.
As a result,
they only operate between sunset and sunrise, Hawaii Standard Time (UTC-10).
When operational, images on this page update every 60 seconds.
The page will automatically refresh when a new image is available.
Weather data updates every 10 seconds, 24 hours a day.

| As noted above, these cameras only operate between sunset and sunrise,
Hawaii Standard Time (UTC-10).
If the image above displays "Daytime (cloudcam sleeping)", they are not operational.
When operational, these cameras may be periodically obscured by inclement weather such a fog, rain, ice, or snow.
Images from these cameras are used to create nightly timelapse videos.
These videos can be found on the
CFHT CloudCam Timelapses page.
