Hello Korina,
I thought that indoor webcams are not the kind of webcams windy.com is wants to be able to show outdoor weather conditions. That is why I am bring it to you're attention.
Here are two webcam url's that are indoor webcams, not showing anything from the outside, other than sun light.
The San Vicente de Tagua Taua, now seems to be correct.
Sincerely,
Joe
Missplaced Webcam titled "Riverside: Sierra - Mono Lake - View."
Used "Edit" in Windy to change location on 9:54 AM 8/4/2020.
It still shows it down in Norco California.
https://www.monolake.org/today/webcam
has several webcams located at about 37.956342, -119.119362 (using decimal-degree longitude,-latitude format).
One of them is missplaced on the Windy.com web site.
Mono Lake is located about 300 miles to the north of Riverside California. The current Windy icon, Riverside: Sierra - Mono Lake - View, is located in Riverside County way down by Los Angelas.
Missplaced Webcam "Riverside: Sierra - Mono Lake - View"
Belongs about here: 37.967041, -119.120039 (using decimal,-degree [longitude,-latitude] format). It is located at the Mono Basion Visitor Center several miles down the road from the visitor center it town; where another webcam is located.
---so---> A possiable reasion people are misplacing the webcam is because Windy uses degrees,decimal,minutes and most Google Earth users use degree,decimal format. The Google Earth setting is located at "[Tools]/[Options]/[3D View]/ Show Lat/Long ."
When cut and pasiting the "lat/lon" format from the windy url into Google Earth that is set for "degrees,decimal" you get an error. So I just deleted the last few numbers to get ride of the error and Google Earth showed the waypoint way down by Riverside County California, thus recreating how people are (possiably/maybe?) makeing the mistake of misplaceing webcam locations.
--> so using "decimal,-degree" format this one belongs at 37.956342, -119.119362
--> using "degrees,decimal,minutes" it is at: 37° 58.025'N, 119° 7.202'W
--> not sure about what the windy format in their url is -- hum?
There is another webcam, from the same webcam owner in Lee Vining California. It is titled "Lee Vining: Mono Lake." This one is in town accross from the gas station in the correct location on Windy.
Windy URL is:

Hello, This webcam belongs up by Bishop California. It is currently positioned in Riverside California. I corrected it a week or so ago with the "edit" option how ever it is still 200 miles or so south of where it should be.
Misplace. I moved it with the "edit pencil" but did not get it quite right. It goes at: Lat/Lon in Degree.decimal: 26.101748°, -97.169035°
Then it would not let me re-edit it. Hummmm????
so: if they used "degree-minute-seconds" it would
be Lat: 30 67 3
Lon:-100 13 8 8 ..dose not make sense.
so they really misplaced it.
So: Rochelle: Texas - Spadre - Bay
Should be: S Padre Bay, Texas
So: found it using their web site at https://www.spadre.com/restaurants.htm
So: a restaurant with a boat in it per webcam photo.
Louie's Backyard, Bayside dining and cocktails
2305 Laguna Blvd., South Padre Island, Texas.
Lat/Lon in Degree.decimal:
26.101748°, -97.169035°
See their photo at: https://www.lbyspi.com/
The photo's that make it easy to see the issue did not upload. So here is try two with the photo's.
Ok. I found where it goes and did the 'Edit' option.
Missed placed webcam.
Got tired of seeing out of place webcam photo near down town Los Angles    .
Ha Ha, a highway with grass in LA and only two lanes going in each direction.
Belongs here:
38.276051°, -121.455780°
You can see it on Google Earth.

Moved it in the "edit location"
and updated webcam owner website because it was a 404 error.
Ok just clicked on my reported url and it came up with a different cam! Something is just not correct here.
See the following. It is only advertising.
34.068, -118.257
https://www.windy.com/-Webcams/United-States/California/Los-Angeles/webcams/1543597784?150h,34.068,-118.259,18,m:eBVacR3
Kind of funny to see grass along an empty open highway by down town Los Angles California. You can cut and past the gps cord's into Google Earth to verify the error.

This one seems to be fixed. I know it takes a while to fix this stuff.
How ever I found another discrepant cam inside a restaurant cam, located
in Leadville Colorado, USA.
