Is your feature request related to a problem?

I'm considering integrating weather data from NWS into our mapbox map, it would be an optional overlay that people could enable, and while it seems novel or even completely out of place, it could be useful for large network operators when looking at a network map showing outages, a weather overlay could help corroborate/root cause -- ie, there was a big storm, my routers are down, a user looks at the map of their network as visualized by ServiceRadar, their devices are geotagged or we have some GeoIP information for that IP that lets us place it with some degree of accuracy on a map. At our work we for example we can isolate devices down to site codes and we know where those sites are so it would be easy to have location data on our endpoints. Further down the line this could be integrated as well with the causal inference engine as a datapoint, weather related outages.

We've done almost all of this work already in ChaseApp so pulling in this NWS weather data into mapbox should be straightforward, however, our network maps are all using deck.gl. Also, unfortunately we only did this with NWS (US) data, I have no idea about any other country yet.

We'll see if we can get a few thumbs up on this issue before proceeding further.
