This live stream looks out over Fairbanks, the largest city in Alaska's Interior. Watch it to see current conditions in a northern town known for long winters, short summers and dramatic shifts in daylight across the year.

About Fairbanks

Fairbanks sits on the Tanana River in the Tanana Valley, roughly 136 metres above sea level, surrounded by boreal forest and low hills. It is the commercial hub of Interior Alaska and home to the University of Alaska Fairbanks, which runs important research on the Arctic and northern climate. The city is a gateway to the Alaska Range and to the wider wilderness of the state.

What the camera shows

The camera is listed as a general view rather than a specific landmark, so the frame depends on where it is pointed. Depending on the view, you may see snow-covered rooftops, bare birches and spruce in winter, or green foliage and open skies in summer. The stream is most rewarding around midday in the long summer months and during the low winter sun, when light changes quickly across the landscape.

Climate and getting there

Fairbanks has a subarctic climate with very cold winters, where temperatures can fall well below freezing for weeks, and mild, long summer days with nearly continuous daylight around the solstice. The best time to visit is late spring through early autumn. Fairbanks International Airport serves the city, and two other live cameras in the area are listed nearby for a wider look at the region.
