PredictWind has launched PredictRain, a dedicated weather app that focuses on one of the biggest variables in any outdoor plan: rain.
Built to deliver high accuracy, short range forecasting, the app uses advanced AI models and real time data to help users make confident decisions whether they are boating, hiking, coaching sport, or preparing for work outdoors.
PredictRain stands apart by narrowing its mission to a single question — will it rain, and when? — and answering it with remarkable precision. At the heart of the app is an AI driven prediction engine that updates every 15 minutes, combining radar imagery, satellite data, and multiple forecast models to build a clear picture of what is happening in the atmosphere.
A tool designed for accuracy and clarity
PredictRain’s headline feature is its hyper local six hour rain forecast, presented as an easy to read timeline backed by real time radar movement. Users can see exactly when showers are likely to start, how long they may last, and how conditions are expected to shift across the day.
A suite of tools adds further depth:
- Rain Radar with custom overlays for tracking approaching systems
- Instant rain alerts predicting rain within the next hour
- Satellite cloud imagery for visual context
- Climate data showing long term rainfall patterns
- Global lightning tracking
- Accumulated rainfall totals for planning around runoff or flooding risk
- Multi model comparisons across six forecast models
Together, these features give users a level of situational awareness normally reserved for professional forecasters.
A standalone app with PredictWind DNA
Although PredictRain is a standalone product, it carries the same forecasting pedigree that has made PredictWind a trusted name with sailors and offshore crews worldwide. PredictWind subscribers receive full access through their existing account, while new users can download the app on iOS and unlock advanced features as needed.
For boaters, PredictRain is especially handy for departure planning, anchorage selection, gear protection, and timing work on deck. Its short range accuracy fills a gap between broad marine forecasts and on water reality, helping users avoid surprise squalls or make the most of brief weather windows.
PredictRain is available now. For more details, visit www.predictrain.com
