Rain in Kleve: What You Need to Know

Rain in Kleve follows the terrain of lower Rhine plain at 18m — the Rhine (lower) catchment means that upstream rainfall can change local conditions faster than forecasts refresh.

For anyone spending time outdoors in Kleve, the question isn't whether it might rain in North Rhine-Westphalia today. It's whether rain will reach the Rhine (lower) catchment in the next 20 minutes. The radar answers that.

The Kleve rain radar in RainViewer runs on DWD data — Germany's national meteorological service, 17 Doppler stations, 5-minute scans. Every pixel on the map represents actual radar returns, not a model output.
