The Bureau of Meteorology updated its website with a new interface that many find harder to use. I built Rain Buddy to restore the familiar radar experience. It uses the same Bureau of Meteorology data, updated every 10 minutes, just with an interface that’s fast and straightforward. PERFECT FOR Planning outdoor activities Tracking incoming rain Farmers monitoring conditions Photographers finding clear skies Anyone who needs reliable weather radar The app requests location only to show your position on the map.
