Weather by message from your inReach
Text “wx” to your AdventureLive address and get the weather where you are.
Out of signal with only your Garmin inReach? Send a message to your own AdventureLive address (the one on My trackers, ending @live.livedot.me):
- wx for now and the next 24 hours: the wind and gusts, the temperature, the swell at sea, and what’s coming.
- wx 3d for the next three days, a line a day.
The answer comes back to your inReach in one message of 160 characters or fewer, ending “AdventureLive”. Wind is in knots at sea.
It works while you have an AdventureLive trip with its link on, from an inReach linked on My trackers. Up to 20 answers a day.
Storm warnings
On your trip, turn on Storm warnings to my inReach. After your first “wx”, we also send a warning when a serious danger for your kind of trip is coming, at most 2 a day.
A message costs what your Garmin plan charges for one. The forecast is a guide: for an emergency, use SOS.
