      Weather radar keeps leaving out area east and west of me in UK. It shows the rain in the preceding hour but not ‘live’.

          @korina Well why does the rainfall disappear suddenly when the timeline becomes up to date? The rainfall is there when one goes back ten minutes but the vanishes.

            @davidpolgreen Hi, I do not see any rainfall disappearing at the moment, but it could be caused by temporary connection issue or maintenance of radar.

              @korina OK - this is what I mean. If you look at the second photo much of the detail has disappeared![0_1628163630005_7ECD97EB-939D-4D5F-82E8-94E7C2E8260F.png](Uploading 0%) 4A4854C9-E9EC-4FBD-8761-418DB7256F7F.png

                I have the same issue the weather radar clears much of the rain before the recomposition, watching a replay of the last hour shows rain imminent but on the last screen it clears before the final recomposition.

                The Met office (UK) clunky weather app shows rain imminent.

                It doesn’t always happen.13:55

                13:57

                  This has been happening for a few weeks. Today is a good example: windy radar glitch.jpg

                    @elbows Yes thanks for illustrating it better than I did! I wonder if we’ll get a response from admin.

                        In this case it seems that problem is that we had outdated image for the Great Britain. Stripes mean that the data was not refreshed for longer time. In that situation when other radar in composite has new data (French in this case), it is placed over the outdated image. So if it happens again, we should investigate the cause of data outage.
                        We were also thinking about other solution for similar situations - allow users to dislpay only one data source instead of composite. In this case you would get outdated GB radar, but without the glitch.

                          @davidpolgreen @Cavok-3 @Elbows Hello, we have made some changes and the radar visualization should not disappear anymore till it updates.
