What’s the most terrible thing for you while driving? Traffic jar? Ticket for speeding? I’m sure one of them must be the bad weather. But it’s very considerate that BMW is offering a special GPS system that takes the weather forecast to a new level and help to get people away from rain and hail and towards blue skies and sunshine. 
This service with the special GPS system is the BMW's latest ConnectedDrive system, also described as an on-board precipitation radar. Featuring a graphic display, the system is updated every 15 minutes with weather information, showing drivers the geographic distribution of rain, snow and hail. The system shows this information for both the current location and the destination in real-time.
Additionally, BMW said that it will add a menu option called Precipitation Pattern from July 2009 which will provide cloud movement representation in animation from the previous 90 minutes.
The system is on offer in Germany at the moment, and will be compatible with any cars using BMW's ConnectedDrive, meaning it could be fairly easy to incorporate into American vehicles - whether or not BMW will offer this service in North America, however, remains uncertain but there shouldn't be too many hurdles in bringing it over.
