However, as a more scientifically-minded user I would actually prefer to deactivate the feature for myself. I usually move the slider back and forth to analyze how precipitation is moving and developing, and mentally extrapolate from there. I find it harder to do that now, because I have to keep a close eye on the slider to check that I don't go beyond the current time and end up in the red half of the bar.

An option in the Settings to activate/deactivate radar forecast would be perfect for me. I wonder how others see this.
