I SEE YOUR HAVING A SUNNY MORNING. I HOPE YOUR FAMILY HAS AIR CONDITIONING. I SEE IT'S WAS IN THE HIGH 90S UP THERE YESTERDAY. I CAN REMEMBER THOSE DAYS WHEN I WAS A KID AND WE HAD NO WAY TO COOL DOWN EXCEPT GO TO THE LAKE AND GO FOR A SWIM. THOSE WERE THE DAYS. DID THE LAKE CLEAN UP YET? WE NEED RAIN HERE IN THE SOUTH AND ALL THE WAY OVER TO TEXAS. I FEEL SO SAD FOR THE FARMERS. WHAT DID YOU DO WITH THE BIRD THAT WAS ON THE DECK? LOL JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT WE NOTICE THOSE THINGS.LOL AGAIN. HAVE A GREAT DAY.

I'M STILL LAUGHING OVER THAT ONE. FOR THE FIRST TIME I DID GET TO SEE YOU WALKING IN THE BACKYARD DOWN TO THE SHORE LINE.IT WAS FUN TO SEE THAT A REAL PERSON LIVES BEHIND THE CAMERA.

I HAVE TO TRY DIFFERENT WAYS OF BRINGING IT UP. IT'S MY FAVORITE SITE IN THE MORNING. ENJOY YOUR HOME BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY OF US THAT WOULD LOVE TO LIVE RIGHT THERE WHERE YOU LIVE.

Submitted by Lou (not verified) on Mon, 04/04/2011 - 14:26.

I have a home on the south east side. A few of the windy days pushed a lot of ice up on my shoreline. I've got a huge 6 foot high ice barrier right where I put my dock and hoist. Ugh!
Can't wait to get on the water.

Thank you Lou for the pictures of the ice along your shoreline. We are also on the south east shore. This web cam is wonderful! Wish we also had one on the south shore.

Click here to see the ice pile on Lou's shoreline: http://www.oneidalakeview.com/photo/Oneida%20Lake%20Scenes/Spring%202011...
They were taken on March 26, 2011. Lou tells us:

Hi, these are from 10 days ago. It's a bit worse now. :-)

The trees are about 5 feet from the water and you can see the ice is pushed well past them. The house is safe, it's up a hill a bit.

Since this happened early, it formed a barrier that will help keep the ice back. It just might be a while before I can put my dock in!

Thanks,
Lou

Spring

Submitted by admin on Sat, 04/02/2011 - 15:59.

Thanks Granny! Love to hear from you. Yes - sometimes I have trouble getting to the site myself. Someday when I get time I will try to fix the issue. One thing you can try is doing a Google search for "Oneida Lake webcam" but don't click on the main link. Instead, click on the link that says "cached" If the camera itself is working, the page that Google gives you will be constantly refreshing with the latest image. I do not think you can bookmark the cached page so you might have to do the search every time. Sorry about the hassle and I hope the workaround works for now.

Spring!

I want to say thanks for having this webcam available. My father and I (from PA and Drive 9) come up frequently for fishing. It is nice to be able to view your webcam before our trip to see what the ice looks like for ice fishing and also what the current conditions of the lake are during the boating season. Maybe see you on the lake. Thanks again.

flooding

Submitted by Lou (not verified) on Fri, 03/18/2011 - 08:12.

Hi, I have a camp on the other side of the lake from this web cam and last weekend was rough. We had some water in the basement and it was very, very wet in a lot of place. Several roads had flooding issues. The more mild weather this week helped a lot I'm sure.
The lake water level is much higher than a year ago. I'm sure they are trying to limit the impact down stream and monitoring the gates closely. Hopefully this will be a good thing to start the year.

I've only seen it build up twice here but nothing too damaging. Some years it just calmly melts away. We'll have to wait and see what this year brings.

Sled tracks

Submitted by admin on Fri, 01/14/2011 - 23:12.

Yes, that was me. I'm not a big fan of riding the lake but I needed to take a test run after some minor maintenance and the trail is still a little thin. There usually isn't much traffic on this part of the lake but there was a wide path from Constantia to Borio's. I don't know if it's completely safe yet or not but there are a lot of ice fishermen out there. Thanks for visiting the site and see you on the trails.
