Historical rain accumulation needed.
-
Can we please have Windy allow viewing of historical rain accumulation data for say, up to one week previous?
When looking at rain accumulation, the past accumulation can be just as important as the current & forecasted accumulation.
Thanks. -

I guess you would like Windy to be able to display the “last week” rain accumulation as a map layer, simply by storing the previous rain data. But this data is forecast not actual data. You would be disappointed during thunderstorm events if you couldn’t see exactly where the rain fell because global models and also regional models cannot predict precisely this type of weather and where it will be observed. To know the previous precipitations, the only way is to rely on weather stations reports.
Or perhaps from past cumulative radar data, but radar data is not available everywhere and it would depend on a good match between dBz returns and precipitation amounts.
