IIRC, I think the guy at the WxWorx booth claimed no more than a
minute or two delay between when they receive the radar data (which
takes 5-6 minutes for a complete sweep, so it could be that old) to
when it hits your receiver. I think he said the outside limit was 5
minutes, i.e. 10 minutes max age. I could be off by a minute or so on
these numbers, but there was no 15 minute delay anywhere...

Great service - I use it too. But it's not real time. The radar
maps are about
half an hour old. A lot can happen in half an hour.

None of the Datalink NEXRAD is going to be any better. They're all
delayed at
least 15 minutes.
