Rainbow Weather is said to be 3.5% more accurate than Apple Weather

Generally, there’s alway one particular snippet of information most people want to know about the weather: is it going to rain? Will your plans run smoothly because the coming hours are set to be dry or will you have to grab your coat and perhaps an umbrella?

With Rainbow Weather, such questions are answered very quickly. Rather than provide a detailed all-encompassing forecast, this app primarily concentrates on the likelihood of precipitation within a two-hour period. It does so with the aid of advanced AI modelling that draws on a variety of data sources that includes meteorology stations, satellites, collated user reports and shared barometer information.

After allowing access to your location, you’re shown a hyperlocal forecast using an animated map. The passing of time displays on an automatically advancing slider (which you can stop and manually position, if you wish) and you’re able to see any moving rain clouds to gain an idea of their size.
