Chance of rain
-
When I open up windy and look at a location one the numbers I want to see as a cyclist is what is the percentage chance of encountering rain during the day. If that number is available, where is it and how do you access it?

Was this ever answered? I can't figure out a way to show chance of rain from any forecast. Only amount.
Thanks.

@dreki Chance of rain in percentage is not available, however, we show the amount of rain in various units.

Thanks @Ondřej-Šutera
Are there any plans to add the ability to see %chance for precipitation?
It is a number I find more useful/familiar for my use case.

Windy does not show the chance of rain because this is given by the Ensemble models while Windy use only Deterministic models.
https://www.worldclimateservice.com/2021/10/12/difference-between-deterministic-and-ensemble-forecasts/The workaround is to compare the different model predictions at a location (click on Compare at bottom of local Meteogram table). You get a multimodel forecast.
If half of the models predict rain you may say that chance of rain is 50%.
