Default OT Rainfall Radar App for Blackberry Bold ?

Been searching unsuccessfully for a 'simple' rainfall radar image I can
view on my Blackberry Bold (2nd hand one), doesn't have to be an
animation, but after this weeks 3 soakings I've had would find this
pretty useful.

Anyone know of a link to one, or how to strip just the image from a
website perhaps?

Many thanks

I don't know if this will work for you with a Blackberry but the stripped-down RainToday was designed for mobile use:

The radar window just stays grey, but this one works:

It does try to send me Meteogroup, althoug that App states that my phone
won't work.

Many thanks

OK, thanks.

The WeatherCast radar is what I would have suggested next. It does the job but I think it's a bit less detailed.

Cheers,

Stephen.
