To run the Sirius Weather application you will

need to purchase an SR100 weather receiver

and a subscription to Sirius weather.
Once connected, the weather application

superimposes historical, current and forecasted

weather graphics and environmental

conditions on the world map and provides

textual forecasts and warnings. These help you

to determine the actual conditions in your

vicinity or at a particular location.
As in the chart application, use the cursor to

move around the map and view different

locations, and the range button to zoom in and

out.
To re-center the map on your boat use the FIND

SHIP soft key.
