Been working on a project in the garden this week despite the weather. Problem is with all the rain we have been getting this month it is a bit chancy to use power tools outside, not really keen on electric shocks! The method I use is to install Meteox,
Uk outdoor DIYers
Ta - looks like this could be v helpful. Have just had the day from hell when - late pm - "light showers" according to the BBC weather forecast (which yesterday were indeed that) turned into a tropical downpour. Bang went my newly-glossed exterior woodwork and masonry-painted surrounding wall. Never mind - only took me two hours to hose all the dilute paint off the conservatory glass roof below.

Thank you for the tip. That's a great acquisition.

I use Met Office 'Rainfall Radar', not quite so timely but does the job and the rainfall animation is handy:
