Interactive weather advisory system

A broadcast network for selectively transmitting individualized weather output signals to a plurality of communicator devices remotely located from the broadcast network, the broadcast network comprising:

• a user input database containing a plurality of user-defined parameters with each of the user-defined parameters including at least one spatial location identifier, a spatial range identifier and a user profile, the user profile in each of the user-defined parameters including a user identifier code identifying a communicator device associated with a particular user and at least one weather content identifier;
• a weather analysis unit automatically and continuously comparing the user-defined parameters with the real-time weather data and predictions of events so as to generate an individualized weather output signal for a plurality of user-defined parameters responsive to the weather content identifiers corresponding to real-time weather data received from a weather information database in the spatial location identified by the spatial location identifier and the spatial range identifier;
• and
• a communication network receiving the user identifier codes in the user-defined parameters and transmitting each individualized weather output signal to the particular communicator device identified by the user identifier code in the user profile included in the user-defined parameter matched with the real-time weather data.

• and
• a communication network receiving the user identifier codes in the user-defined parameters and transmitting each individualized weather output signal to the particular communicator device identified by the user identifier code in the user profile included in the user-defined parameter matched with the real-time weather data.

A broadcast network for selectively transmitting individualized weather output signals to at least one of a plurality of communicator devices remotely located from the broadcast network, the broadcast network comprising:

• a user input database containing a plurality of user-defined parameters with each of the user-defined parameters including a spatial range identifier, a weather content identifier and a user profile, the user profile in each of the user-defined parameters including a user identifier code identifying a communicator device associated with a particular user;
• a communicator location database containing real-time data indicative of the spatial locations of the communicator devices;
• a weather analysis unit automatically and continuously comparing the spatial range identifier and the weather content identifier included in each of the user-defined parameters and the spatial location of each communicator device contained in the communicator location database with real-time weather data received from a weather information database so as to generate an individualized weather output signal including weather information within the spatial range identified by the spatial range identifier for each user-defined parameter;
• and
• a communication network receiving the user identifier codes in the user-defined parameters and the individualized weather output signals, the communication network transmitting each individualized weather output signal to the particular communicator device identified by the user identifier code in the user profile included in the User-defined parameter corresponding with the real-time weather data, whereby each of the individual communicator devices receives only the weather information requested by the user in the user-defined parameters.

A method for providing weather information to a plurality of users located remotely from a broadcast network, comprising the steps of:

• inputting a plurality of user-defined parameters into a user input database with each of user-defined parameters including a spatial range identifier, a weather content identifier and a user profile, the user profile and each of the user-defined parameters including a user identifier code identifying a communicator device associated with a particular user;
• inputting, continuously, real-time data indicative of the spatial locations of the communicator devices into a communicator location database;
• comparing, automatically and continuously, the spatial range identifier and the weather content identifier included in the user-defined parameters and the spatial location of a plurality of communicator devices contained in the communicator location database with real-time weather data so as to generate a plurality of individualized weather output signals including weather information within the spatial range identified by the spatial range identifier for a plurality of user-defined parameters;
• receiving, the user identifier codes in the user-defined parameters and the individualized weather output signals by a communication network;
• and
• transmitting each individualized weather output signal to the particular communicator device identified by the user identifier code in the user profile included in the user-defined parameter corresponding with the real-time weather data, whereby the individual communicator devices receives only the weather information requested by the user in the user-defined parameters.
