I have not seen this but I think it's a pretty good idea. especially if you spend a lot of time in your vehicle traveling for work

I like the idea its a good back up to having a handheld with the weather channel option seriously thinking of getting one for my personal vehicle see how it goes.

My 4Runner has something similar to the above with the forecast and radar, when available via radio. Is the one you show actually a radio broadcast of the WeatherChannel or is it just the TV feed broadcast over radio? It seems it would have limited use if just the national feed.

I don't have the weather channel in my AM/FM radio but I do have it in both my CB and Ham radios.

I've got weather on my CB and my GMRS radios.

I'd like to get my hands on an older radio that has air traffic, weather, AM, and FM and all that.

NOAA weather should be standard on ALL Jepp Wranglers, Subaru Cross Treks, Colorado ZR2, the new Ford Bronco and the like. Vehicles marketed as "offroad" and adventure vehicles

based on the display in @Omar Teran 's original post this is NWS/National Weather Service broadcasts over VHF and not anything to do with the "Weather Channel". These are local broadcasts due to limited range on VHF so should be relevant to you if you can hear them. Also in theory (if the radio is equipped with it) you will get a "digital" alert that may trigger the radio to automatically tune to that freq if there is an alert tone issue. Pretty nice feature if you have it.

Here's a link for more info about the stations: NWR Station Listing
