Radio Shack is doing a closeout on this,
http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103038, a 5 day weather
forecaster based on NWS predictions. It determines your location based on
nearest broadcast station and provides 5 day forecasts for 5 cities in that
area. It provides visually high/low temps and rainy, sunny, cloudy ...
indicators for each day, plus an indicator for signal strength.

For $13, marked down from $45 and Brookstoned at $85 seems like it's worth a
try. Not available online at Tandy, but still avail at most stores.

I can see using it for planning go/nogo decisions and supplementing NOAA
weather radio.
