I would like the ability to know what colors (specifically for rain) represent when viewing the radar. I love the look of the colors, but what I am wondering is if they correlate to amount of rain/percentage or what exactly they represent? There's not any way for me to tell as it is.

This is what the colors mean, per RainViewer. I may add a legend, but frankly, there is not much quantitative data exposed for what each "level" of rain means

Hi, I was also wondering for the color-code. I don't get the same colors in your link. In your screenshot and in the app, snow and rain colors are overlapping, while on the website I have green in place of the blue tones for rain.

Rainviewer has multiple built-in themes. I have been using "Universal Blue" for QuickWeather. The default on their website is "The Weather Channel" which are the colors you are seeing. On their site, you can select the theme from their settings on the top right.

I've already started work adding a legend to the radar map and I already planned to also allow choosing the radar color theme in the Advanced Settings, because of exactly this issue
