Detailed Review
WetterOnline lists its operator as WetterOnline Meteorologische Dienstleistungen GmbH, Karl-Legien-Straße 194a, 53117 Bonn, Germany. The imprint gives the Handelsregister entry as Amtsgericht Bonn, HRB 8664, and notes membership of PRIMET, an association of private meteorological services.
The site is German and its menu is broad: forecasts, radars, news, a weather school, data, travel and advice sections.
Radars and forecasts
The menu names a 14-Tage-Wetter forecast and radar views for rain, weather, temperature, wind and lightning. Colour maps, pollen, UV index, webcams, snow depth and water temperature are also listed.
Membership
The pages mention a WetterOnline Mitgliedschaft, with separate terms for it. No price or feature split between free and paid appeared in the text we read.
WetterOnline next to AccuWeather
For German, Austrian and Swiss users the radar range is the draw. International coverage and any extra features of AccuWeather are not something we could compare.
Limitations to Consider
The interface is German, and the membership price and benefits were not shown on the pages we read. The legal pages are in German only, and the data location is not stated. The site carries advertising and tracking settings.
Who Should Use WetterOnline
German-speaking users in Germany, Austria and Switzerland who check radar often and accept a German interface.
