Radar rain nowcast
When radar coverage is available, the chart beside the temperature shows recent precipitation and a short-range rain forecast in mm/h, with expected start or end times. Coverage gaps remain gaps; the hourly precipitation forecast is a separate dataset.
In the Drone Meteo app
The web page provides the next 24 hours of drone flying weather. The Drone Meteo app also brings together these tools:
METAR and weather stations
Check nearby aviation weather reports for observed wind, visibility and clouds, together with the report time.
Weather radar and satellite clouds
Explore rain and snow radar, satellite cloud imagery and recent lightning on the map. These map layers are available in the app; this web page shows the rain nowcast where covered.
Wind models, Kp and GNSS
Compare wind forecasts from different weather models and review the Kp geomagnetic index and visible GNSS satellite count when planning UAV or FPV flights. Satellite count alone does not establish positioning reliability.
