If you have ever left home for a ride thinking it won't rain and ended up soaking wet, then you haven't visisted the Bureau of Meteorology's awesome Weather Radar website. The Radar features a map of Brisbane and surrounding region and displays the location and intensity of rainfall. Even cooler is the ability to play a loop of the last 4 radar images so you can see which way the rain is heading.

Blair says "The radar is great because I know if I will get wet or not. If it doesn't look too flash outside, I always check the radar before a ride."
