XM Product Ages

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

WEATHER COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT SAFETY OF FLIGHT.

The XM product ages box is displayed in the

lower--left corner of the navigation map and

datalink weather pages. The XM product ages

for the selected weather products are displayed

(in minutes) in green when data is being received

and updated.
