We will be coming down to Oyster Pond in a month or so and wondered if "Alexa" works in St. Martin? Is there anyone using it on the island with connection to iHeart radio and other audio services?

It mostly works for listening to music. Pandora and prime music. The biggest issue for me is that it cannot tell me the weather since it uses a USA zip code for location.

Can't you just ask for the weather in St. Maarten? You don't have to be where you are inquiring about...

..and..re: SXM weather forecasts. I swear it says the same every day anyway. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" />

Best forecast is to just look out the window or use the webcams around the island.

Asking for the weather for major cities and countries works. To this day I have not found any word city/ location combination that works. Believe me I tried everything. If anyone found the magic word let me know.

Try a neighboring island like St Barth or Anquilla.
