Default NTSB: Crossfield Not Warned Of Adverse Weather

Using XM radio to avoid Tstorms can be pretty hazardous unless you

It is odd that he was taking so much advice from ATC. XM Wx should easily
keep you clear of level 5-6 stuff, and is much better than depending on
controllers to avoid big CBs.

If Crossfield's XM Wx was working, he was either ignoring it or pushing way
too hard.
