• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Continuous Weather Radar Display

Does anyone know of a way to display a weather radar picture that updates as your location changes? Something very much like a GPS display but with a weather overlay. I've tried several iPhone apps but all require you to touch the screen in order to update your location.

Thanks

I use the Garman wx app on my Verizon cell phone. You still have to tell it where you are located. Hope it helps.:cheers:
 
Try WeatherBug it will update your location to where ever your phone is automatically. I have mine set on GPS service and refresh rate every 15 min. I have a smart phone service with Verizon.
 
I get continuos WX radar on my Garmin 665. Sirius XM Radio subscription with WX.

I have an additional question about the smart phone ( any brand ) and continuous updated weather maps. If you provide continuous power to the phone, can you set it so the screen will not go dark after a few seconds?

I agree with Jack that the Garmin 665 with Sirius service is the way to go.

Radar now works good
 
My garmin nuvi has that option. Gets realtime updates via a link to my cell phone. Traffic, construction, alerts even traffic cams if I ask for them.
