About mazha.live — Live Kerala Rain Tracker

mazha.live is a community-powered rain tracking map for Kerala, India. Instead of relying only on satellite imagery or forecast models, mazha.live shows what people are actually experiencing right now: real-time rain reports submitted by users across all 14 districts of Kerala.

"Mazha" (മഴ) means "rain" in Malayalam. mazha.live was built to answer a simple question that forecasts often can't: is it raining right now, at my exact location? By combining live community reports with a district-wise map, mazha.live gives an up-to-the-minute picture of rain intensity across Kerala — from Thiruvananthapuram in the south to Kasaragod in the north.

No account needed. No sign-up required. Just a pincode and a tap — every report appears instantly on the live map, colour-coded by intensity from drizzle (green) to extreme (red).

How It Works

mazha.live turns community reports into a live rain map in three steps:

  1. Users report current rain conditions from their location by entering their pincode and selecting intensity.
  2. Reports are aggregated in real time onto a live map of Kerala, colour-coded by intensity.
  3. The map shows rain intensity district by district, updated continuously every 30 seconds.

⚡ Reports fade over 2 hours — intensity automatically decays until the report expires at 48 hours. Always shows the freshest picture.

Districts Covered

mazha.live covers all 14 districts of Kerala with live, crowdsourced rain reports:

Thiruvananthapuram, Kollam, Pathanamthitta, Alappuzha, Kottayam, Idukki, Ernakulam (Kochi), Thrissur, Palakkad, Malappuram, Kozhikode (Calicut), Wayanad, Kannur, and Kasaragod.

Who It's For

Community-Driven & Always Free

mazha.live is built entirely around crowd-sourced data. Every dot on the map was placed by someone who took a few seconds to report what they were seeing. The more people participate, the more accurate and useful the map becomes.

✅ No account. No ads that trick you. No paywall. The site is supported by non-intrusive Google AdSense ads to cover hosting and development costs.

How does community rain reporting work?

Anyone in Kerala can report rain by entering their pincode and selecting the intensity level. Reports appear instantly on the live rain map as colour-coded dots. This crowdsourced data builds an accurate, hyperlocal picture of current rainfall across Kerala.

Does mazha.live provide heavy rain warnings?

How does mazha.live compare to IMD weather data?

IMD provides official weather data; mazha.live complements it with hyperlocal, crowdsourced rain reports from people on the ground. While IMD data is authoritative, community reporting gives minute-by-minute ground truth that's especially useful during Kerala monsoon season.

Can I get dam spillway release alerts?

Yes. Live dam water levels and spillway release rates (in m³/s) are shown in the top ticker alongside heavy rain alerts. This helps with downstream flood awareness during the southwest and northeast monsoon seasons.

Yes! Download the official mazha app from Google Play for push notifications, faster loading, and offline support — built for the best Kerala rain tracking experience.

How is mazha.live different from a normal weather app?

Most weather apps show forecasts based on models. mazha.live shows live, crowdsourced observations from real people in Kerala, so it reflects current conditions rather than a prediction. It's the difference between being told it might rain and knowing that someone in your area is actually getting wet right now.
