I started this thread with tongue in cheek.

Note in the text that displayed weather is 5 minutes old (probably more than
that). A thunder storm can move just enough to kill you in that time if you
rely on these displays. See the following:

It would be nice to get satellite Wx to see the cloud patterns, like
streets. Is there anyway to get this now? Smart phones tend to not
work well above a few K feet AGL.

XM weather. Google it. Takes a subscription, but it's delivered by
satellite, so it will work no matter how high you are.
