    Can I see weather radar projection rather than just last 1hr/6hr/12hrs?

      I like the weather radar view but it's only showing historical information. Can I see that same view as a projection (i.e. next 3 hours?). It seems my only way of seeing forecast rain is to select rain/thunder view which isn't as good.

        You can’t see a Radar picture in the next 3 hours because a Weather radar doesn’t report rain in the future. A radar projection is just the last picture moved in the same direction as previously observed. Last storm cells may disappear and new ones not be shown. These projections are not reliable.
