Handy to see what's coming your way or roughly how long the current rain is going to last.
Edited so the link works :)

Cheers mate its a good site.
is good for your phone :) (http://WWW.raintoday.co.uk/mobile[/url)

Handy for me as I don't have a TV or windows and I can't look up :rolleyes
-
I've paid for the premium version because it gives you better definition and a forecast of where the rain is likely to be over the next couple of hours which is very handy for planning routes to avoid it :thumbup

What's wrong with the met office?: http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/beta/ (http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/beta/)
All there including surface pressure charts and it's free!
Their Android app is pretty good too.

i use Accuweather on my mobile brill little app does daily, hourly maps and videos too anywhere in the world :lol
-
I have a foolproof weather guide method:
Open door
Go Outside
Am I wet?
Yes - it's raining
No - it's not raining
Free of charge and you can update your software every day at no cost (by this I mean change your pants)

very true streetbudgie lol, it,s not rocket science :lol

yep but with the uk weather could be dry where you are but 5 miles down the road downpours :eek

What's wrong with the met office?:
It doesn't give you the rainfall predictions as accurately and as far ahead as the Rain Today site does.

Works for me :-)

Used the met site for years. Surprisingly good:
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/forecast/#?tab=fiveDay (http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/forecast/#?tab=fiveDay)
With all sorts of different charts, updated at least two-hourly.

It does for where I live. Enter your location and the rainfall radar will show in large scale and offer predictions for several hours ahead. I've watched the rain come in over the hills* at the same time as the radar showed it. Spot on.
I would guess that site just uses the Met Office data anyway - can't imagine it has it's own radar stations set up.

"Will it rain?" The site checks your IP address and if it's a UK one it says:
"Of course it will, you're in the UK, what did you expect?! :)
-
I work on the theory that if the rains cold its winter if the rains warm its summer.

The Met Office site only gives an hour-by-hour breakdown, the Premium version of the Rain Today one breaks that down to five minutes sections which can be much more useful.
