On several occasions now, the nav/display system in my 2016 LEAF has given a spoken audio alert, coupled with a popup notifier (that apparently must be dismissed by touching its "OK" box) on the LCD display, urgently notifying me of a "weather alert". That could be of interest, but the warning is only that the dangerous condition ("High Wind", and "Winter Storm" being the two that I can remember) is some specific distance away. Nothing identifies where the condition is, or even gives its relative bearing, so what action is the driver supposed to take? "Golly; there are high winds forty miles away! Guess I'd better park and seek underground shelter!"
When the nav display can annotate the map with little yellow caution markers that can be interrogated to discover things like "Traffic signal inoperative at this intersection", or "Temporary lane closure", would it be so hard to annotate the map to show where these weather events are?
