Cool thought, but what you are asking for is wireless internet, not satelite weather downlink.
A very little known fact is the weather "pictures" come from the ground.
The data from satelites is somthing akin to the signal you send over a telephone modem. It's just raw data and all the cool pictures you see on TV or WEB need to be post-processed on the ground.
So while I know what you want, you can get it now with cell phone, or wireless web browser. No satelite required!

I had another idea. Is it possible to get weather radar on the navigation system? Sure is lots of weather satelites up there.
Does anyone know of an aftermarket program that would let the Navigation System show weather radar? Is there anything else available for use in the Navigation System?
Watching the Navigation System is so cool, that I almost let my wife do the driving (I said 'almost' LOL).
