      Looked through the available modules and haven’t seen any radar ones. Would be interesting to have a local weather radar. I know Open Weather has a page dedicated to map layers (https://openweathermap.org/hugemaps#how) but I’m still pretty new to this so I’m sure someone could figure it out much quicker than I can.

          Hello Fwood04,

          I have also looked into this myself. The closest I got was using iFrame to display a radar map. My issue was trying to find a live radar map that was able to refresh the URL automatically. The below works fine for me but I still am not able to get it to refresh automatically. 0_1484758439732_mmexample.PNG

          	{
          	module: 'iFrame',
          		position: 'bottom_bar', // This can be any of the regions.
          		config: {
          			// See 'Configuration options' for more information.
          		url: "https://maps.darksky.net/@radar,26.527,-80.077,9?embed=true&timeControl=false&fieldControl=false&defaultField=radar",
          		width: "100%", // Optional. Default: 100%
          		height: "480px", //Optional. Default: 100px
          	}
          	},
          

          you can also use the radar loop from wunderground but I also have the same issue of not being able to get it to refresh automatically.

          Maybe someone else has some ideas?

            Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track
