      @schwnj You can change the colours yourself - Settings, Customize Color Scale, Precipitation Type. That being said, I agree...in my mind snow should be blue, rain should be green.

      @Ondřej-Šutera thanks for that. Yes I think it'd be a really handy feature to have since I think there are often times that many people want to see how much rainfall is forecast to fall today, tomorrow, the day after, etc. And a 24 hour max lightning feature would also act as an extremely useful thunderstorm map for today, tomorrow, etc. I think you already use this technique for your wind accumulation option - if so, you could just use the same coding (but for lightning instead) without having to reinvent the wheel.

      @1jfulk In the phone app, the precipitation type is not shown by the weather picker but you could identify the type with the colour legend at bottom of your screen. [image: 1640860775009-df15b096-882c-4f8c-818a-61435c1ea991.jpeg]

      @dan-easton - What about experimenting with some of the maps at this source below and seeing if you can establish correlation? Maybe a certain amount of soil moisture anomaly would correspond to puddles? NOAA also might have other sources you could find helpful. well. Their hydrological modeling is extensive. You might even try a call to the local wx office, as each office sometimes has their own wx and hydrology tools/outputs available for public use (put on their local page, actually). At least, it used to be that way about ten years ago or so. I assume not much has changed with that. The wx office page on the NOAA/NWS site or the local office phone number would be your best bet for such a contact. Here is the most relevant source I found with a quick search: https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/soilmst/index_jh.html Again, maybe it's not acculumated rain in the latest 1/2 day increments, but it is a start.
