I currently am using the XM radio on my Zumo, but am wondering about how useful the weather feature of the Zumo 550 is. I would appreciate any guidance.
Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.
Note: This feature may not be available in some browsers.
I bought the weather/traffic optionÔÇörather subscribed to it. It's a few bucks a month.
I don't live in a populated area where the traffic reports apply, but I think the weather is worth is.
It will tell you the local detailed forecast.
It will give you a U.S. weather map and you can see the forecast anywhere you're headed.
Once, coming out of Kansas, a flash-flood warning popped up on the screen! Fortunately it was behind us, but I was pretty impressed at that info.
Another pop-up is a traffic delay, letting you know to expect an upcoming incident and how many minutes delay to anticipate.
Pretty cool. Why don't you try it? You can cancel anytime.
$3.99 per month is only for traffic and basic weather. To find out more goto http://www.xmradio.com/navtraffic/index.xmc
It is my understanding that basic weather gets you weather forcasts and weather alerts.
