I’m avoiding having to walk in the rain and I’m watching Wunderground and the rain cloud traveling from north to south over me seems to disappear from the system right south of me as I’m waiting for it to stop raining.
It looks like the rain is just traveling right over me and then poof. What’s happening?

Weather radar isn’t actually tracking clouds, it’s tracking the precipitation itself. Once the cloud can no longer produce precipitation then it can pretty quickly disappear from radar.
