I really don’t know what species this is, although I would guess it’s some sort of orbweaver. Its web is about 3 feet across.

The closest match I’ve found online so far is the cross orbweaver (Araneus diadematus), but it doesn’t seem exactly right. The white markings on this spider look more like a line of dots than the distinct cross visible in reference pics.
