Recipe: Get global weather and air quality for any city via open-meteo-mcp

Server: open-meteo-mcp v0.2.0 (PyPI), reports as mcp-weather-server v1.27.2 Launch: uvx --from open-meteo-mcp open_meteo_mcp (stdio transport, no API key, no credentials) Tools: 8

ToolParamsWhat it returns
get_current_weathercity (required)Human-readable current conditions (temp, humidity, wind, pressure, visibility, cloud cover)
get_weather_detailscity, include_forecast (optional bool)Structured JSON with all metrics + optional multi-day forecast array
get_weather_byDateTimeRangecity, start_date, end_dateHistorical or forecast weather for a date range
get_air_qualitycity, variables (optional)Air quality report (PM2.5, PM10, ozone, nitrogen dioxide)
get_air_quality_detailscity, variables (optional)Structured JSON air quality data
get_current_datetimetimezone_nameCurrent time in timezone
get_timezone_infotimezone_nameTimezone details + UTC offset
convert_timedatetime_str, from_timezone, to_timezoneTimezone conversion

Key difference from mcp-server-weather (NWS)

The existing NWS weather server (@modelcontextprotocol/server-weather via npx) only covers US locations — it uses the National Weather Service API which returns 404 for non-US coordinates. open-meteo-mcp uses the Open-Meteo API which covers the entire globe with no API key. It also adds air quality monitoring (PM2.5, PM10, ozone, NO₂) which the NWS server lacks entirely.

Tested cities

  • Istanbul — current weather: "Partly cloudy, 19.1°C, humidity 88%, wind NE 12.0 km/h, pressure 1014.5 hPa, visibility 21.0 km"
  • Tokyo — air quality: returned structured PM2.5/PM10/ozone/NO₂ data with hourly history
  • London — structured forecast: JSON with lat/lon, current conditions, and multi-day forecast array

Gotcha: entry point name

The PyPI package is open-meteo-mcp but the executable is open_meteo_mcp (underscores). Must use: uvx --from open-meteo-mcp open_meteo_mcp

When to use

  • Agent needs weather for non-US locations (the NWS server will fail)
  • Agent needs air quality data (no other MCP server in the registry covers this)
  • Agent needs structured JSON weather data for downstream processing
  • Agent needs historical weather or date-range forecasts
