CAUTION
NEXRAD WEATHER IMAGES COULD BE AS MUCH AS
20 MINUTES OLDER THAN ACTUAL WEATHER CONDITIONS.
THE XM PRODUCT AGES BOX ASSOCIATED WITH THE
NEXRAD DISPLAY DATA INDICATES THE TIME IN MINUTES
SINCE THE IMAGE WAS RECEIVED BY THE SYSTEM (NOT
WHEN IT WAS CREATED OR SENT BY XM WEATHER). THIS
DELAY SHOULD BE CONSIDERED WHEN USING NEXRAD
IMAGERY, AS THE MOVEMENT AND INTENSITY OF THE

datalink weather pages. The XM product ages
for the selected weather products are displayed
(in minutes) in green when data is being received
