MQTT can be the tricky bit because some of the freebies out there have limitations which your weewx may hit pretty quickly. If you're thinking of trying to host your own MQTT, I'm working on a write up for how mine is setup.
I chose windy.com because it's free and you can do a fair amount of customization. Except for the map color - gray is the only option... Looks like you can only have wind, or cloud. The cloud option looks like it may show both actually. Change the lat/lon for your area, but the bit I changed (and got lucky with) was overlay=wind https://embed.windy.com/embed2.html?lat=-26.195&lon=138.560&zoom=5&level=surface&overlay=wind&menu=&message=&marker=&calendar=&pressure=&type=map&location=coordinates&detail=&detailLat=-26.195&detailLon=138.560&metricWind=default&metricTemp=default&radarRange=-1 You're not married to windy though, if you find another radar you like, you can use that instead. Just use the full HTML of <img src="http://thesite/radar.gif";> or something and making sure the width and height matches the parameters for an easy swap out.
