The XM system of redundant satellites, broadcasting in the S-Band, enables seamless delivery of audio entertainment and vital data services in the harshest of weather conditions.

Pushing the envelope even further, XM is proud to announce the latest and most advanced service to date - XM Weather service.
What is XM Weather?
XM Weather is a new service enabling real-time graphical weather data for GPS navigation devices. XM Weather covers not only atmospheric but also conditions on the ground. The information displayed can be broken into three main areas:
- Current Weather Conditions
- Forecasted Weather Conditions - 5 day forecasted weather
- Threatening Weather Notifications - for near term (1/2 hour) Warnings and Watches are also included as part of the service.
What makes this service unique?
A weather data service by XM is not new as the XM Satellite Weather Service has been in place for a number of years now, providing real-time weather information for pilots and mariners. XM WX is "professional grade" weather that a pilot or mariner must interpret to understand the weather threat potential. What makes XM Weather unique is that the interpretation of the weather data is done for the user, providing clear information on current, future, and threatening weather conditions. The user can simply see the information provided and instantly know the current weather or weather threat potential.
How would I use the service?
Imagine hiking through the woods with the ONIX400 - skies are clear and there is a chance of rain. Using the XM Weather service you can graphically see the precipitation pattern as well as receive a warning of threatening storm conditions advancing on your position. Or, the rains have come but they are north of your position. A flash flood warning has been issued for your location by the NWS. due to the rain. The XM Weather service will graphically show the NWS warning directly on the ONIX 400, enabling you to take action based on the capabilities of the service.
