Since the videos start at midnight, depending on the phase of the Moon, the first 10-15 seconds may be dark. The "North" and "South" cameras are movable 'pan-tilt-zoom' cameras. For operational reasons, the field and direction of view may change without warning.
Additionally, the camera may be periodically obscured by inclement weather such a fog, rain, ice, or snow throughout the timelapse.

Current images from these cameras can be found on the CFHT Webcams page.
