気予報が放送されるのを待っているだけの時間的余裕は
ないのが一般的である。また、電話の天気予報も、各地
方の天気予報が順次放送されるので、所望の区域の天気
予報を聞くまでにかなりの時間を要することがあった。However, radio and television weather forecasts are broadcast only at fixed times. On the other hand, in real life, weather information of a desired area is often needed immediately. For example, when wondering whether or not to use an umbrella when going to work, it is general that there is not enough time to wait for the weather forecast to be broadcast on TV, radio, or the like. Also, as for the weather forecast on the telephone, the weather forecast for each region is broadcast in sequence, so it may take a considerable time to hear the weather forecast for the desired area.

はできない。Therefore, in many cases, the judgment is made by looking at the state of the sky in the west or by recalling the weather forecast viewed on a television or the like many hours ago. Also, as described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-42086, a device has been proposed in which weather information is superimposed and displayed on a map previously stored in a computer. With this type of device, weather information can be immediately obtained by scrolling the map to display a desired area, but a large display for displaying the map and a complicated program for processing the map information are required, and the size is small. It can't be converted and carried. Therefore, you cannot get the weather information unless you go to the place where the specified computer is installed.
It is not possible to get the weather information of the desired area immediately from anywhere.
