For over 30 years I operated mail order businesses between Phoenix and Rockford, Illinois. Prescott is one of my favorite cities; beautiful setting up in the mountains.
At one time they had 3 high quality cams, in the downtown area. During the winter months I often checked weather conditions there before driving up from Phoenix, they can get snowed in at times.
My friends and I own planes, and I always checked the Prescott airport cam to get a general idea of flight activity. The majority of activity is from Embry Riddle during the week, and they have priority. If air traffic is heavy, it’s easy to get placed into a holding pattern for 20 or 30 minutes, in which case I would drive up there.
For anyone into Western History, such as myself, Prescott has tons of that. Wyatt Earp’s brother Virgil was there for some time as a Deputy Sheriff and owned a saw mill.
Doc Holliday also hung out there, and all the Earp brothers met there to start their journey south to Tombstone.

For anyone interested, here’s the “Controllable” cam:
I just read an article about this fire and it mentioned that a lot of it is scrub that hasn't been burned for 40 or 50 years. In France they have laws which say scrub must be cleared by landowners. They still get forest fires but not as bad.
Oh Mommie Dearest, the peerless rose of Devon; thank you for your encouraging reply and your solicitude...

Morning Sunrise .... I knew you would take it as it was meant ... a joke. And take no notice of people telling you to shut up. Your point of view is as valuable as their's. :D

The two Embry-Riddle cams are amazingly clear!
Beautiful clouds.
