Real-time site specific weather information distribution system and method
First Claim
1. A system for providing real-time site specific weather information, said system comprising:
- a plurality of remote sensing units, each of said remote sensing units including an electronic messaging system for delivering electronic messages indicative of ground level meteorological observations;
a server system communicating with said remote sensing units to receive the electronic messages, said server system including a database for storing information pertaining to said remote sensing units and instructions for routing the received electronic messages; and
at least one remote system configured to receive non-ground level meteorological data indicative of a weather phenomenon and to associate the electronic messages with the non-ground level meteorological data for graphical display together with a graphical view of the geographic area affected by the weather phenomenon and the ground level meteorological observations.

Abstract
A system for providing real-time site specific weather information includes a plurality of remote sensing units, each of which incorporates an electronic messaging system for delivering electronic messages indicative of ground level meteorological observations, and a server system communicating with the remote sensing units to receive the electronic messages. The server system includes a database for storing information pertaining to the remote sensing units and instructions for routing the received electronic messages. At least one remote system is configured to receive non-ground level meteorological data indicative of a weather phenomenon and to associate the electronic messages with the non-ground level meteorological data for graphical display together with a graphical view of the geographic area affected by the weather phenomenon and the ground level meteorological observations. A method for providing real-time site specific weather information is also disclosed.
