Requesting an inReach Weather Forecast

While your inReach® Mini 3 satellite communicator is connected to your phone and has an active internet connection, it can receive detailed weather information from the internet. If you are in a location without active internet access, your inReach Mini 3 satellite communicator can send a message to request a weather forecast using your inReach service plan. You can receive weather forecasts for your current location, a waypoint, GPS coordinates, or a location you choose on the map. Weather forecasts incur data charges or additional charges on your inReach service plan. For the best results, you should ensure your satellite communicator has a clear view of the sky when you request a weather forecast over satellite.

  1. From the home page, press Up arrow or Down arrow to scroll through the apps.
  2. Select Weather.
  3. Press OK to open the options menu.
  4. Select Update.
The device sends a request for the forecast. It may take several minutes to receive the weather forecast data.
NOTE: A marine forecast will be included for locations on an ocean or other large body of water, if available. If you are unable to get a marine forecast, select a location further from the shore.
After the device finishes downloading the data, you can view the forecast at any time until all of the information in the forecast has expired. You can also update the forecast at any time.
NOTE: Updating a forecast incurs data charges or additional usage charges.
