NextDrop tells you exactly when rain will start and stop at your location — not "60% chance today", but "rain in 12 minutes, lasting about half an hour". MINUTE-BY-MINUTE FORECAST See precipitation minute by minute for the next hour, and hour by hour beyond that. NextDrop names what is actually falling: rain, snow, sleet or freezing rain. ALERTS BEFORE THE FIRST DROP Get a notification before rain reaches you, with the lead time you choose. Set how heavy it has to be before you want to hear about it, and set quiet hours so nothing wakes you at 3am. NextDrop can also tell you when the rain has stopped. ANIMATED RADAR Watch precipitation move across a live radar map — 90 minutes of history and four hours ahead, so you can see whether a shower is heading for you or passing by. COMPARE THE FORECAST MODELS See what the major weather models say side by side: GFS, ECMWF and ICON. When they agree, you can trust the forecast. When they disagree, NextDrop tells you that too, instead of pretending to a confidence nobody has. YOUR PLACES Save up to 20 places and switch between them instantly — home, work, the school run, wherever you are heading this weekend.
