Weather


Serenity uses Nobeltec software for navigation. One of the options with Nobeltec is a Weather Pack. To utilize weather feature one must have a method to receive weather information. We chose a WxWorx radio that receives XM WX Satellite Weather. The hardware is rather pricey, and the XM “vig” is rather steep, but we decided to go with it for safety. Here are the products we will receive:


Radar Summary

Weather Warnings

City Forecasts

Surface Observations

Radar Coverage

Current Precipitation

High Resolution NEXRAD Radar

High Resolution Radar

Precipitation Type (at surface)

Surface Analysis Weather Maps
