## Description

Meteocool - Rain radar is a free, open-source Chrome extension delivering real-time meteorological updates to help you avoid getting caught in rainstorms. Utilizing data from the German Weather Service, it provides push notifications for precipitation such as rain, snow, or hail up to 60 minutes before it occurs at your location within Central Europe.

Key features include fast-updating rain radar, a live lightning map supported by blitzortung.org, and a cloud movement forecast extending up to 45 minutes into the future. Designed for user convenience, it supports dark mode and requires location access for precise alerts. Meteocool is currently tailored for Central Europe, with plans for geographic expansion. Perfect for anyone wanting timely weather insights without ads or cost.
