Rainfall forecast - what time does the data refer to

[lachlanc]

When I look at a forecast for a specific location it might show, say, 5mm of rainfall at 3pm. Does this mean 5mm in the period up to 3pm or does it mean 5mm in the period from 3pm onwards?

@lachlanc Hi, can you provide exact screenshot, which data you mean?

@lachlanc
In the FAQ it is said that Rain is the rainfall “accumulation in the last 3 hours”.

Yes. The period of rain is for the X hours before the valid time selected on the chart.
