## Description

Rain incoming? RadarDrops warns you to the minute before the first drop falls. Live radar, lightning tracking and severe weather alerts, all at a glance.

Will it rain soon? How hard? And when will it stop?

Drops Radar answers that with real radar measurements – live rain radar and nowcast, updated by the minute depending on your region. No vague forecasts, just what's happening right now and what's coming in the next 120 minutes.

WHY DROPS RADAR IS DIFFERENT

Most weather apps show you forecast models that update only every 3–6 hours. Drops Radar uses ground-based radar stations instead – meaning you see what's happening now and what's coming in the next 120 minutes.

- Current radar measurements instead of outdated forecasts
- Frequent updates from over 370 radar stations
- Nowcasting: precise short-term forecast for the next 1–2 hours
- Virga detection: shows whether the rain actually reaches the ground
