What it does

RainViewer provides radar-oriented weather information and mobile weather products.

Check the layer indicator before reading the timeline: radar, satellite, forecast and rainfall totals represent different information. Playback, nowcast and model-forecast horizons depend on the plan. The free tier includes ads and shorter limits, while subscriptions add longer history and forecast views.

Strengths

Layer labels and frame-marked timeline
Plan comparison distinguishes playback, nowcast and model forecast
