As the title says really?
Could do with knowing what the weather is really like in or around Toulon right now?

well spotted Jimmy,
the camera takes pics in different angles,
here BA is on the left side
and in this pic she's more towards the right side, at the end of the quai
on this website they store some of the pics

Wow, it's nice to see in real time that your pride and joy is still afloat!
It seems that the Admiral on your port side is still there, or am I mistaken?
Were they able to pull her a bit further away from BA?
I would be a tad worried to have the boats so close in a strong blow...

how many times a day do I look at this webcam you thinkWow, it's nice to see in real time that your pride and joy is still afloat!
They have not yet, as the sailboat was still in the way...
but I was able to pull BA a bit more to SB, and fix double ropes.
I spoke with the captain of the Admiral, and he is almost dayly on the boat, and will observe what happens during strong wind,
I'm quite sure that he has to fix more or better bow lines when there is a strong mistrall, his Port side bow, has to take the full blow,
and from experience from last year I know this can be very strong,
but he will notice himself.

Yep, precisely what I was guessing.
Good to know that the boat captain is regularly around, anyway.
He's obviously as interested as yourself in not having the boats hitting each other!

Not sure it's real time tho is it?
I was using it to track a ship which is going into Toulon and it didn't appear but know it's gone past the camera shot.
