      Currently down in Cornwall in the SW, rain radar for Windy shows no rain whereas it is hammering down outside. What gives ?

        Hi @ben-73a4d593-b023-4946-a541-4045b4165f9b, we get our radar data from UK MetOffice.
        At the time you posted (17:10Z), our radar map is pretty consistent with one of MetOffice.
        Maybe low altitude coverage for your area is currently degraded?

          Thanks. Have a photo from Lands End looking out to sea at this time, there are at least two large areas of rain you can see within 10 miles falling onto the sea. Also got caught out with rain a few days ago and none was showing on the radar too.

          Is there a way to find out if there is an issue?

            That is most likely a question for MetOffice directly.
