Frequently asked questions
How often does the rain radar update?
The map is built from hourly model data and recalculated every hour. The time of the frame on screen is shown under the map — that is the moment what you see refers to.
It's raining, but the map shows nothing. Why?
Fine drizzle from low cloud is often not resolved by the model. The opposite happens too: rain can evaporate high up before it reaches the ground, so the map shows rain and it stays dry where you are.
Is there an app?
Yes. The Weather24 app has the same radar, a push notification about 30 minutes before a storm reaches you, and home-screen widgets. Get the app →
Does it show snow in Edinburgh?
Where snow falls the map turns blue. For sleet, freezing rain and snowfall per hour over the next 24 hours, open snow in Edinburgh.
