sferics vs Nexrad
Peter,
What is the worldwide coverage like with XM?
Nil. There are two geostationary satellites covering the western and
eastern US, aptly named "Rock" and "Roll" (XM does music radio,
primarily). The frequencies used are allocated to military/public
services in much of Europe, for example, so don't hold your breath on
an international expansion.
