Jake,
I thought about this some more during my last flight. To be honest, I don't need to read the whole AIRMET or SIGMET. Most of the text is a description of the geographical area, which I can see clearly (and frankly, better) on the map already.
The only text I really need or want to see is the altitude for the Turbulence and/or Icing areas. Maybe you can find a way to paste that information on the map with the report type that is currently displayed?
I don't need the "altitude" information for IFR conditions, Mountain Obscuration, or Convective activity. I know where those are vertically, and the lateral boundaries (already displayed) are perfectly adequate.
