A sensible estimate, not a backyard gauge. Rainfall can vary over short distances. This reading represents the weather-data grid cell nearest your selected location.
Plain and simple
From weather data to one useful number
We check the record
Recent model and observation data is matched to the nearest weather grid cell.
You get the total
We add the hourly or daily rainfall and report it in familiar U.S. inches.

Useful data, honestly labeled
Rain by Zip uses Open-Meteo’s current and historical weather APIs. These services combine weather models with observations to provide consistent location coverage.
Results are estimates and may differ from a nearby physical rain gauge, especially during brief, localized storms. Historical custom-date results may also be revised as observations are quality controlled.
