Best place to get rainfall forecasts?

MadYaker

Hi guys, do you know where is the best place to get fairly accurate rainfall forecasts for the coming 3-4 days? I'm a kayaker and we need rainfall to fill up the rivers for us to paddle on. The rainfall radar on met.ie seems pretty good but im looking for something that can predict a bit further into the future.

Thanks.

There's a 5 day forecast on met.ie here

The various computer models are where the basis for most forecasts come from so if you check them as well you wont be far off.

Accumulation over the next 60 hours here which is usually quite accurate

GFS goes 2 weeks into the future but obviously accuracy drops the further out you go, should give a general idea for a week ahead anyway
