you will need to do this by moving your finger in our direction it is a bit
like how you are just page numbering. have a look on p 2 where it says
notification threshold.you can set this from heavy rain to life rain and you
will need to do this by moving your finger in an upward direction.

Hi Barry
I have been through the settings on dark sky and in the normal settings but I
can’t find where you ask for alerts I have looked on the three pages of the
app but can’t find it anywhere. Please can you tell me where to find it?

Wow! Thanks for the tip, Jackie. What a superb app Dark Sky is. It gives you
accurate weather in your location, can alert you an hour before to any rain
from heavy to light depending on what you set it. It also tells you the
basic forecast for the next five days. As far as I can tell, it’s totally
accessible with Voice Over. My new favourite weather app.
Cheers
Barry

Hi Phil
I liked it too, I remember that Ian and I had one a long time ago and found
it useful when our son was playing outside when the rain started. But,
coincidentally, someone recommended an iOS app called Dark Sky that I bought
and downloaded last week. It is really quite good, and provided you let it
know your location, it will tell you when it is going to rain within minutes
of it starting. I know this isn’t useful if you don’t have an iPhone, but I
certainly find it very helpful. As for a physical rain alert, I’ll keep
searching and report back if I find anything of use.
Kind Regards,
Jackie Brown

In the olden days RNIB used to sell a simple device (effectively an extension
of a liquid level indicator) that you put a plate outside your window and
then a very loud buzzer inside the house. Rain hits plate, noise goes off!
Any idea where I might get a similar device these days please?
My Mum even had one from the 1960’s that was very very well built out of
metal! J
Thanks PJ
