River
The Oze River: 3 Live Cameras in Japan — on the border
A river whose right bank is Yamaguchi and left bank Hiroshima, in three cameras: a weir, a warning station and a field office.
What you can see
All three are fixed on one spot. On this river the right bank is Yamaguchi and the left bank Hiroshima.
The Nakaichi weir is filmed from the right bank, which means the view looks from the Yamaguchi side towards Hiroshima.
The warning station camera sits at a river warning post: a facility built to give notice of rising water doubles as the streaming point.
The field office camera looks at the river from a ministry office.
All three look out from a weir or a facility, so what this river offers is the view from the side that manages it.

When to watch
Heavy rain is when these matter. The warning station exists to give notice of rising water, so when that screen has changed, the river is in that state. Decide about evacuation from your local authority. The cameras here are for seeing how things look.
The worse the day, the darker the picture, and raindrops blur the lens. Do not expect much of the image.
On a calm day the Nakaichi weir is the one to watch. The view is from the right bank, so the far side of the weir is Hiroshima. The operator publishes no best season, and we do not set one here.
If it isn't showing
The source is the Chugoku Regional Bureau of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. These are test feeds and can stop without notice. How to tell why a screen is blank is in What is happening when a live camera shows nothing.
We count all three in Yamaguchi, but the river itself is the border with Hiroshima.
The same prefecture also has The Saba River. As a river that crosses a prefectural line, it sits alongside The Gono River.
