What does RA stand for on the windy mobile app?
-
I took a snapshot from my windy.com mobile app (see attached). I noticed the "RA" nomenclature on the map, and also "RA" stamps on the Meteogram on the pic below. can some tell what those mean? I have a feeling it has something to do with Rain. Thanks!

RA stands for RAIN.
-RA, light rain
+RA, heavy rain
TSRA, thunderstorm with rain.
Those are some of the abbreviations used in METARs
(format for reporting airport's weather information).
