| December 2009 | Original version with 4 camera views,
designed based on the Mount Rainier Paradise WebCams webpage,
with cameras from the Southwestern British Columbia Mountain WebCams
and Washington Mountain WebCams webpages
Includes the option to show the last 24 hours of NWAC and
SNOTEL telemetry data from Mount Baker below the webcams

| June 2010 | Fixed one camera link which had changed |
| September 2010 |
Expanded to 5 camera views, adding the low-resolution version of Ferndale image, since the high-res version is very unreliable |

Fixed a minor bug in the SNOTEL data display, which only occurred between 11pm and midnight and showed the previous day's date for the 0000 hour's data row |
| March 2011 |
Fixed a minor quirk in the SNOTEL data display, which only occurred when SNOTEL data is not available at a given site for the previous 24 hours |
| February 2012 | Updated the URLs from which to download the SNOTEL data, which had recently been changed slightly |
| September 2012 | Added the newly-installed air quality webcam from Ferndale, which had been offline since March 2011 due to construction |
| October 2012 | Expanded to 7 camera views, adding the Mount Constitution and Bluenose webcams, and rearranged images into 2 rows |

| December 2012 |
Expanded to 8 camera views, adding the Anacortes Middle School webcam, and updated one WSDOT camera URL which had changed
Added more code to properly handle the new HTTP Status 404 errors from the SNOTEL server, and other unknown SNOTEL errors
|
| January 2013 |
Expanded to 9 camera views, adding the new Skunk Bay Weather webcam 2 from Hansville
Revised the page layout to use separate tables for each row, to better accommodate the very different widths of images
|
| March 2013 |
Forced to write a new external script to grab SNOTEL data,
after the long-existing SNOTEL data programs on the NWCC website were suddenly redirected to a beta-version report generator
The new script is a major improvement, it displays wind and solar data for any SNOTEL sites which have those sensors, mostly installed within the last few years
