Live Fall Colors Webcam

Watch as the leaves change in the Nation’s Capital. The  camera is atop the U.S. Forest Service’s Yates Building in Washington, D.C. The lens points west toward Virginia. On the right, you can see the National Mall; on the left is the Tidal Basin. The tall buildings in the far distance are in Arlington, Va. Check back throughout the season as the colors change.

Our webcam is currently down for maintenance. Please check back later, we are working on it.

And under the DC Web cam you'll find links to several others we have placed throughout the country!
