Even well to the south and southwest. Much of it may be virga but, even if so, it's a start.

Problem with Intellicast is it's the virga capital of the world and overestates precip, sometimes greatly so. It's got too much sensitivity as far as I'm concerned. Much more accurate are any NWS radars, TWC, Nexrad and even AW (although AW tends to have bad rain/snow lines at times).

Nexrad

Nexrad local  - just click on any station on the national map:

TWC:

TWC regionals;

TWC local - which is newly updated and allows you to zoom in to your neighborhood and which can also be set to show cloud cover. This will be great with summer squall lines,stalled/crawling T-storms and severe T-storms and the cloud cover option will be great for pool/beach trip planning.
