For anyone spending time outdoors in Buchholz in der Nordheide, the question isn't whether it might rain in Lower Saxony today. It's whether rain will reach the Elbe estuary tributaries catchment in the next 20 minutes. The radar answers that.
The radar data behind Buchholz in der Nordheide's live map comes from Germany's DWD — 17 stations, 5-minute scans, dual-polarization Doppler. What you see on the map is where rain actually is, not where a model thinks it will be.
**Shoulder months** The spring shoulder (April–May) sees Buchholz in der Nordheide's Elbe estuary tributaries catchment still saturated from winter, making it more responsive to rainfall than the bare figures suggest. Autumn (September–October) brings the reverse pattern: summer-dry soils that absorb the first rains, then flood risk that builds through October.
