Recently, the US weather service seems to have decided that do to bandwith problems they will be unable to provide as much data as they provided previously: [https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2020/12/09/nws-data-limits-internet-bandwidth/#click=https://t.co/6tywxCboCz](https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2020/12/09/nws-data-limits-internet-bandwidth/#click=https://t.co/6tywxCboCz) IPFS seems like the solution they need. If they would only publish their data on IPFS they could likely provide their users with all the data.
