Why does app show two different numbers for precipitation?

Weather

Hello,

Thank you for your app.

I have a question about precipitation data. In the screenshot, at the same time, the value shown on the map is different from the value shown in the forecast table below. I am using the ECMWF model.

I also tested both 1-hour and 3-hour precipitation settings, but the difference is still there.

Why are these values different? Which value should I use to estimate the expected rainfall amount at my location?

Thank you.

Currently, the forecast shown in the tables below uses the default AUTO model selection. So while the map is displaying the ECMWF model, the forecast in the tables below is using the ICON model (as indicated below the meteogram, where the model in use is shown).

In the future, we also plan to expand the selection of models available for the table forecast.
