What you see in the New York sky

The view looks west from Brooklyn Bridge Park across the East River to Lower Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge.

The trees follow the real leaf dates in Central Park, and snow on the ground makes it winter. At dusk the windows of the towers light up.

Macy's Fourth of July fireworks go up over the East River. House sparrows sing all year, robins and song sparrows from spring to fall, and chickadees and juncos in the cold months.

Where the weather comes from

The US National Weather Service: Central Park for the temperature, and LaGuardia airport for the wind, the cloud layers and the visibility. The sky checks for new weather every few minutes.

Is this a live camera?

No. The sky is an animated drawing, and the weather in it is real. Clouds, rain, snow, fog, wind, the sun and the moon follow live weather data for New York, so the picture matches the real sky.

The lofi music

The lofi music follows the weather too, with different songs for clear skies, rain and snow, by day and by night. Code makes all of the music live, and new songs come in every night. Tap the sky to start the music.

The weather friends

A small friend for each kind of weather visits the corner of the screen while its weather lasts. Meet them all on the friends page.
