Rainfall Radar Map Layer (Met Office)

Rainfall radar map layers are available as a single image covering the UK or as a set of tiled images (Web Map Tile Service) to show recent rain rates in mm/hour over the UK.

Layer images are updated every 15 minutes with a 15 minute delay due to processing times.

The map layer is provided without a map, the boundary box for this image is 48.0 to 61.0 degrees north and 12.0 degrees west to 5.0 degrees east.
