     Yes, but with WinMacAPRS,  you can show temp, baro, winds and precip data
in lieu of the station's callsign.  With APRSDos, you can show similar info as
well - either temp/wind, temp/baro or temp/precip (I think - Bob B, correct me
if I misstated this.  AFAIK, the only way to show a station's WX data requires
active user intervention (such as clicking on its symbol), which folks in your
NWSFO may not know about ... or not have the time to bother with.  The display
on WinMacAPRS and APRSDos provide  this information without such intervention,
if the displays are set up appropriately.                                   73
