XM WX Satellite Weather
A Garmin XM satellite weather receiver and antenna receives XM WX Satellite Weather data and
shows it on various Garmin devices, including the Navigation chart on a chartplotter. The weather
data for each feature comes from reputable weather data centers such as the National Weather
Service and the Hydrometeorological Prediction Center. For more information, see the XM WX
Satellite Weather Web site at www.xmwxweather.com .
Note : To view XM WX Satellite Weather information, you must have a subscription to XM
WX Satellite Weather, and you must have a Garmin XM satellite weather receiver connected to a
chartplotter.
XM WX Satellite Weather Data Broadcasts
XM WX Satellite Weather data is broadcast at set rates. For example, NeX t Generation Weather
RAD ar (NEXRAD) data is broadcast at five-minute intervals. When the Garmin receiver is turned
on, or when a new feature is selected, the receiver has to receive new data before it can be shown.
You might experience a delay before weather data or a new feature appears on the map.
Note
: Any weather feature can change in appearance or interpretation if the source that provides
the information changes.

warnings. NEXRAD shows precipitation ranging from very light rain and snow, up to strong
