> [@Dr\_Milker](#): > > Hmm, not too clammy where I am…yet. North coast. Pissing down rain. I took my doggies for a walk and had to wear my rain suit. Finished and took of my rain suit and I was completely drenched with sweat! Yep. Probably should have taken a walk in shorts and a T-shirt and just got wet from rain! I can take the heat, but it’s the humidity I can’t stand. Saturday was sunny, breezy and a wonderful 73% humidity up here at the old dog farm. But now, it totally shitte, humidity wise. ---

Yes. As I have posted before, there is, as they say, an app for that. It’s called “Raining Bell”, is completely free with no adds or other annoying popups, and is available for Android and Apple. I think it’s called that because it can send you a “bell” or notification when rain is predicted soon in your area. I just turn that off and look at the radar. The clock starts 20 minutes ago and flows in steps of 10 minutes to display how the rain was, is now, and is predicted to develop over the next 2 hours, then automatically loops back to 20 minutes ago to show you again. The recent latest version displays the prediction for the next three hours, gives the numbers for the current temperature, humidity, and windspeed and direction, and has an LLM voice assistant that can apparently respond to questions in Mandarin or Taiwanese, but I’ve not tried the assistant out yet. You can also press a point on the time scale to show and pause the predicted radar for that time. I use it so often it’s become a habit. For hiking I used to spend a while checking out the forecasts of the CWA for different towns and villages to pinpoint where the most clement weather would be, and I use Windy in much the same way to plan river traces. Accuweather is my go to for longer range forecasts. But for short trips, this is often all I check, especially because it’s so simple to use. It shows only Taiwan/R.O.C., and only has a few functions. There was a period of months when it got stuck and the data took a frustratingly long time to come through, but that seems to have been fixed and it’s (touch wood) back to being rather snappy again. I’ve used it very successfully, for example, a few times when caught in sudden rain while riding scooter, to inform my passenger both when the rain would soon ease off and we could carry on, and also when it would clearly not and they should better consider transferring to MRT for the rest of the journey. However, it does not always prove accurate. I have cycled around happily in areas labelled green where there was supposed to be very light rain but there was in fact none. I also waited at a friend’s flat for a number of hours because the app kept predicting the intense centre of a storm would blow west but instead it kept stretching west whilst yet remaining overhead like it was a malevolent piece of gum snagged on an invisible pole miles above his rooftop, or a hole in the sky that kept tearing wider. And, as our dear friend mentioned, > [@Taiwan\_Luthiers](#): > > even radars don’t tell you if rain clouds will just spawn out of nowhere. I also find its accuracy goes down with typhoons. It carries a (imo overly humble) warning that it is experimental and to refer to CWA for accurate reports. YMMV. If you don’t wish to use the app, it crashed once and I managed to copy the url address into my brower. Here is the old version with looping 2 hour prediction: > **[落雨小幫手](https://watchapp.ncdr.nat.gov.tw)** And the newer 3 hour version: > **[落雨小幫手](https://watchapp.ncdr.nat.gov.tw/appv2)** Opening these in a browser loses the function the app gives of being able to move the map around. You only have the fixed map and the option to zoom in to your location by pressing the blue circle. Caveat emptor: Tbh some days I miss the time before when I couldn’t check this app before going out, so be warned 🙂 ---

Thanks a lot, I guess that’s the best we can get here. I’m not sure how much they use actual weather stations as feedback loop in learning microclimates, as well as how good is their topographical layer below, but those are things many weather/radar services that aren’t paid for say by airports are often lacking… I remember snow-forecast starting up as a company in new Zealand and in the beginning they used to have spotters in each skifield measuring each face of the mountain for snowfall amount to integrate that. Then it became big and they simply dropped that data and forgot about micro climates down to that level. ---

I also don’t know what kind of weather data fishermen use as well, as weather prediction is kinda important for them. ---

> [@ponlaihop](#): > > oh no, it’s getting a bit nippy :runaway: hurry, put on your designer antarctic exploration gear! Hey, my weather app is telling me the feels-like is 7 degrees! It’s certainly a dramatic weather swing over 24 hours. Yesterday was absolutely gorgeous, Taipei about as good as it gets for both temperature and air quality. Today - not as bad as it gets, but dismal nonetheless. ---

Yes, I agree and just did it. Thanks for the heads-up. I also merged a post from 12/30 of 2025 since the article in the post mentions weather into 2026 and since there were some replies made to that post in 2026. ---
