There is a program that some Amateur Radio operators use called "Xastir"
which is used for displaying on a map data received from Hams gps
connected radio transmitters. It can also send and receive data from
weather stations and give audible alerts. See www.xastir.org for
details. 

The Xastir users list would be a good place to ask a question like that
because many of the people on the list are very knowledgeable about
weather programs and interfacing weather equipment and may know of a
program that will do what you want.
