Weather overlay

I would love to have a real time weather overlay on the WAZE maps. This would be a GREAT feature to add to aid in knowing more about driving conditions. Please vote and let's see what we can do to make it happen.

    Had this idea a while ago. Would love to see a radar overlay. Could also pop up on long haul drives automatically zooming out to show you your about to drive into a storm... that would be amazing.

    Please, become even better and add weather! Waze would then be absolutely the best nav app!

    I find myself jumping back and forth between the Waze app and my Radar app to see what the weather is an dhow it's going to affect travel. Some roads are most likely going to be closed due to the weather, heavy rains or snow. It would be helpful to have an overlay button to see the weather so the driver could be better informed of the drive before them.

    I would definitely like a weather overlay. And with our storms we definitely need it !!

    So sad that for so many years ,integration of weather with Waze and nobody has come with that. I myself I am willing to paid for that.

    This is a MUST for road traveling specially in countries that have a very dynamic and dangerous weather (Midwest US with tornadoes and strong rain formations).

    This would be VERY powerful! Especially if it could compute commute time based on weather (say -5% mph slower in medium rain, -10% in heavy rain or snow, -25% or more in heavy snow or ice. If done with even more forethought, it could decide routes based on weather for longer trips!

    In Israel you can get the weather on gis from the Israeli Meteorological Service. I believe its available in other countries too :)

    This would be great for motorcyclists, to help avoid rain. I currently use radar now, but it uses mapquest maps which I don't like as well as waze.

    This would be incredibly helpful, especially for us in the North who deal with unexpected snow squalls. Perhaps check with Intellicast or TWC to see if you can buddy up with their Dopplers. I so look forward to this.

    Great idea, for now only few apps in marketplace provide such feature. Would like proper implementation of weather data on route or radar overlay. As well would be great for motorcyclists to be prepare for weather conditions.
