This live camera looks out over Tucson, a desert city in southern Arizona set against the Santa Catalina and Rincon mountains. Open the stream to get a sense of the sky, the light and the conditions across the valley before you plan your day or a trip.

About Tucson

Tucson sits in the Sonoran Desert at roughly 700 metres above sea level, with mountain ranges rising on several sides of the valley. The city is home to the University of Arizona and a strong Mexican-American cultural heritage, and it is known for its saguaro cactus forests, old adobe districts and an unusually clear, dry atmosphere. The stream title names only the city, so the exact framing is best judged from the live picture itself.

What to watch and when

Desert skies are at their most striking around sunrise and sunset, when the low light brings out the colour of the surrounding mountains and the ridgelines stand out sharply. Clouds are infrequent for much of the year, so the most useful thing to check is often the visibility and whether the summer monsoon storms are building in the afternoon. Watching in the early morning can show the air at its coolest and clearest.

Climate and getting around

Tucson has hot summers, with afternoon highs often above 38 ยฐC, and mild, sunny winters that suit outdoor visits. Spring and autumn are generally the most comfortable seasons for walking and hiking. Other cameras in the region show nearby places, including the flamingos at Reid Park Zoo and the saguaro cactus at Saguaro National Park, which are useful for comparing conditions across the area.
