app.scss imports Google's font, but when internet down page 1 minute timeout

I have a stock site. At the top line of my app.scss I have an import for Google's font:

// Fonts
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Nunito');

My expectation is that the fonts are downloaded to the local machine. However, when the internet goes down the page take a minute to load as it first has to time out.

Am I doing something wrong?
