      Now, with screenshot above (many thanks!), I understand much better your problem.

      This is weird, as for me this layer works perfectly at any moment for the same area and map scale (screenshot below - cannot go back in the past at same date/time as on your screenshot). That data layer may be empty at bigger map scale though (i.e. no rain is forecasted).

      Maybe your internet access is cut off by moments? Did you tried on other device with different internet access? Do you use the most recent version of Edge? Did you tried on a different web browser, e.g. Chrome?

      You could also watch if following type of query returns something - with web browser in debug mode (F12) - when you select some new date/time on the time bar for that layer: https://ims.windy.com/ecmwf-hres/2021/08/03/06/257w3/3/0/rainlogptype2-surface.png?reftime=2021072512.

      Otherwise, you should wait for help from Windy support team.

          I am using a PC. Also, if I see the wind patterns that should mean that there is nothing wrong with the internet connection.

            @braafpaard Hello, this is not desktop? Are you using Windy app on a computer?

              Not sure what you mean. Yes, I am using a computer (I said I am using a PC which is a computer.)

                @braafpaard Yes, but you are using Windy as an app on the computer?

                  Yes, i have installed the Windy on my computer. How else would I use Windy. Please don't answer that. Also, I am done with this discussion that leads to nowhere. Just in case you are wondering: I use the mouse with my left hand. So you don't have to ask that.

                    Ouch! I sware I wouldn't want to start World War III, nor falling into the nothingness by answering that (I've already seen plenty of left-handed mice and loved them all :oj)--- I would dare to suggest though that entering the URL "windy.com" on any decent/recent/standard web browser on PC, would be enough to use Windy; no need to install anything else...

                      @braafpaard Hello, I am not able to replicated such issue, therefore I needed to know more details about your device and so.

                      Do you know what version of the app you have installed?

                        I found a way to make the rain visible. I explain this so other people who might have the same problem can use this.
                        Open the app. It only shows wind pattern. Click on the time axis. If you don’t click on the time axis this trick will not work. Click on the + button. You now will see the rain. Interestingly if you click on the – button instead of the + button the rain does not show. After clicking on the – button the + button does not do its magic anymore.
