Semi off-topic, but does anybody know a good weather radar app that has coverage outside the US (with particular interest in Europe)?
Apple/Dark Sky seems to only cover a very limited number of countries (despite many more providing radar data under open access), and zoom.earth seems to be shutting down precipitation radar by September.

- jonp888 1y agoI use WetterOnline, it's German but I think it covers all of Europe.
- frm88 1y agoI second windy. Very detailed and precise. Supports several models/data sources like ECMWF, Arome, Meteo Blue etc. They still have a free tier with a 5-day forecast and a very expensive premium tier (10 days, I believe??) - but everything longer than 5 days tends to get increasingly im precise anyways.
- lxgr 1y agoMy use case is usually evading thunderstorms when cycling/hiking, which are ~impossible to predict more than a few hours ahead of time anyway, so this works perfectly. Thank you!
- Leftium 1y agoI'm working on a weather web app that has world-wide radar coverage: https://weather-sense.leftium.com https://weather-sense.leftium.com The radar data is from the RainViewer API: https://www.rainviewer.com/api.html https://www.rainviewer.com/api.html - Hmm... it seems this API is also being limited/discontinued... - I think past radar will continue to work, but only to zoom level 10/7. - And the future 30-90 minutes of predicted radar will no longer work. My project was inspired by: https://merrysky.net https://merrysky.net (And the OG Dark Sky UI)
