GPS / Map / Radar

Does anyone know of an app that integrates your GPS position, maps and the current radar? I can use Google Maps / Windows Live to find out where I am (ie GPS position), but would love to have the current weather radar overlayed. Especially useful like today, when I was driving on the interstate and was wondering what to expect up ahead. I can pull up a radar site, like Accuweather, but have to guess at my position on their map.

Thanks.

Re: GPS / Map / Radar

Thanks. I tried that when it first came out and didn't see a radar / map screen on it. Maybe I missed it?

Re: GPS / Map / Radar

it doesn't have a radar option

I like that idea though, but I haven't seen anything like that either (yet)

Re: GPS / Map / Radar

+1 Good idea, I've been looking for something like this for a while myself.... Perhaps someone could develop this... Any takers?

Re: GPS / Map / Radar

@BuddyLee, I'll check out the problem. On the screen with the radar map, can you pin point your exact location?

Thanks.

Re: GPS / Map / Radar

Hi, do a google search for memory map weather radar. The program when used with memory map navigator will show your GPS position in relationship to the weather.

Con: Need to purchase memory map navigator which sells for $100 to overlay GPS position on weather radar map. Weather Radar sells for $10, but won't show GPS position without the other program running in the background. They do have a demo if your interested in trying it.

I wish someone would develop a program that would use google maps and overlay weather radar. That would be cool!
