I'm working on a weather web app that has world-wide radar coverage: https://weather-sense.leftium.com

The radar data is from the RainViewer API: https://www.rainviewer.com/api.html

- Hmm... it seems this API is also being limited/discontinued...

- I think past radar will continue to work, but only to zoom level 10/7.

- And the future 30-90 minutes of predicted radar will no longer work.

My project was inspired by: https://merrysky.net (And the OG Dark Sky UI)

I second windy. Very detailed and precise. Supports several models/data sources like ECMWF, Arome, Meteo Blue etc. They still have a free tier with a 5-day forecast and a very expensive premium tier (10 days, I believe??) - but everything longer than 5 days tends to get increasingly im precise anyways.

My use case is usually evading thunderstorms when cycling/hiking, which are ~impossible to predict more than a few hours ahead of time anyway, so this works perfectly. Thank you!

I use WetterOnline, it's German but I think it covers all of Europe.
