> stylized watercolor map

Now it make sense to see wavy lines. I still think that it's better to show an accurate map under the radar image. Perhaps grey/translucid so it's not distracting, but it's easy to identify the features. When I see a map, I know by heart the shape of the main avenues and cost of my city and I can understand it. (Moreover, when there is a disaster announcement in another city and they claim the flood area was 3milesx5miles, I try to imagine that rectangle over my city to understand it.)

My mother is a retired meteorologist [1], so I'm somewhat used to climate maps and satellite images. After retirement she used to go to the webpage of the National Meteorology Office where she worked, so she could peek the maps [2].

I'm in Buenos Aires (city), but the map is centered in Buenos Aires (province). The city is the old port, that is obliviously in the coast, so the center is far away. (We should have changed the duplicated the names, but blame backward compatibility :) .)

Yesterday was sunny and and today is cloudy. I'll try again when it rains. Does the raining info cover all/most of the world or only USA. Here we have precipitation radar but I don't know if the info is shared.
