Comment(by beirdo):

 http://www.weather.com/common/home/legal.html

 In particular, in section 3B:
  * You may not modify, publish, transmit, display, participate in the
 transfer or sale, create derivative works, or in any way exploit, any of
 the content, in whole or in part.
  * In the event of any permitted copying, redistribution or publication of
 copyrighted material, no changes in or deletion of author attribution,
 trademark legend or copyright notice shall be made and no ownership rights
 shall be transferred.

 From this, I'd posit that without written permission from them, we can't
 use their maps at all in mythweather.
