Does it depend on a non-free service?

I don't know. FDroid said it promoted or entirely relied on a paid service. That's why I asked.

Yeah I think they're counting NOAA as non-free since you couldn't run their servers yourself. Which like, NOAA is doing the data collection and analysis themselves. I'm not sure that's a fair classification. Maybe I'm missing something
