Rain in Hurth: What You Need to Know

Hurth sits in upland Eifel catchment, where the Eifel stream network defines both the landscape and the flood risk. The rain radar shows what's happening on your street right now — not what a model predicted hours ago.

Forecasts for Hurth are calibrated across all of North Rhine-Westphalia — which means upland Eifel catchment topography and Eifel stream network drainage patterns specific to Hurth are smoothed away. The live radar keeps them.

The radar data behind Hurth'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.
