How Do I Add a Localized Radar Map

I tried adding a local radar map, but the URL is not functioning. So my question is how do I add something like this? Also, I can’t delete the one that is not functioning properly? Is there a way to do that? Thanks.

Where in Weather Watcher are you adding that map? What’s the URL for the map?

Add More Maps > Add > Map Editor. URL I just used from accuweather local radar (https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/reading/19601/weather-radar/330291) but then I saw that the URLs were different for the other maps that come with the program. I am assuming we can add a customized map radar but I could be wrong. If we can, where can I find the correct type of URL needed for the program?

That’s a link to a webpage – and not a weather map image.

You can only add links to static links like this one:

Ok, so basically you are saying I cannot add a more localized weather radar map to the program? I would not know why anyone would want to add a static map.

Right, nobody would likely want to do that. I’m only referring to using a static link – or a URL that never changes. And the URL must link to an image since Weather Watcher is only able to display map images.
