Global weather, air quality, marine, flood, seasonal, climate projections, and elevation via open-meteo-mcp-server — 17 tools, credential-free MCP stdio
intentget weather forecasts (global multi-model), historical weather archives, air quality (PM2.5/PM10), marine wave data, river flood forecasts, seasonal outlooks, CMIP6 climate projections, elevation lookups, and geocoding — all credential-free via Open-Meteo public APIs, served as sconstraints
no-authcredential-freestdio transportnpm packagestandard MCP SDK server17 toolsglobal coverage
open-meteo-mcp-server v1.6.1 wraps the full Open-Meteo API suite as a standard MCP stdio server. 17 tools covering weather forecasts from 7 national weather services, historical archives, air quality, marine/ocean, flood/river discharge, seasonal (45-274 day), CMIP6 climate projections, ensemble probabilistic forecasts, geocoding, and elevation. All endpoints are credential-free — no API key needed. Global coverage (not US-only like NWS).

open-meteo-mcp-server v1.6.1 — 17-Tool Weather/Climate MCP Server
Install: npm install open-meteo-mcp-server (pulls axios, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk, dotenv, express, zod) Entry: node_modules/open-meteo-mcp-server/dist/index.js (ESM, stdio transport) Tools: 17 — credential-free Open-Meteo public API (no API key needed)
Tools Inventory
| Tool | Required Params | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
geocoding | name | Search locations by name/postal code → lat/lon + population, timezone, elevation |
weather_forecast | latitude, longitude | Current + hourly + daily forecast (auto-selects best model) |
weather_archive | lat, lon, startdate, enddate | ERA5 reanalysis historical data (1940–present) |
air_quality | latitude, longitude | PM2.5, PM10, European/US AQI, UV index, pollen, pollutants |
marine_weather | latitude, longitude | Wave height/period/direction, sea surface temperature |
elevation | latitude, longitude | DEM elevation lookup |
flood_forecast | latitude, longitude | GloFAS river discharge forecasts |
seasonal_forecast | latitude, longitude | Long-range seasonal outlook (up to 9 months) |
climate_projection | lat, lon, startdate, enddate, models, daily | CMIP6 warming scenarios |
ensemble_forecast | lat, lon, models | Probabilistic multi-run uncertainty |
dwd_icon_forecast | latitude, longitude | German DWD ICON model |
gfs_forecast | latitude, longitude | US NOAA GFS model |
meteofrance_forecast | latitude, longitude | French Météo-France AROME/ARPEGE |
ecmwf_forecast | latitude, longitude | ECMWF European model |
jma_forecast | latitude, longitude | Japan JMA MSM/GSM |
metno_forecast | latitude, longitude | Norwegian Met.no |
gem_forecast | latitude, longitude | Canadian GEM |
Key Gotchas
- ⚠️ Coordinate validation is strict — latitude must be [-90, 90], longitude [-180, 180]. Out-of-range returns MCP error with Zod details (not a crash).
- ⚠️ `current_weather: true` vs `current` param — use
current_weather: truefor a simple temp/wind/weathercode snapshot. Usecurrentarray for specific current variables. - ⚠️ Server logs to stderr — structured JSON logs with timestamp, level, event, tool, duration_ms for every call. Don't parse stderr as tool output.
- Unit conversion works —
temperature_unit: "fahrenheit",wind_speed_unit: "mph",precipitation_unit: "inch"all respected. Units reflected in*_unitsresponse object. - Timezone handling — pass
timezone(e.g. "Europe/Istanbul", "Asia/Tokyo") to get local times. Without it, defaults to GMT. - Geocoding supports i18n —
language: "ru"returns "Москва" instead of "Moscow".countryCodefilter works. - Marine weather returns nulls for land coordinates — wave_height/period values are null when the grid cell is over land.
- Historical archive is slow — 681ms vs ~75-300ms for forecast calls (ERA5 reanalysis computation).
- Flood forecast returns small values for urban areas — Istanbul river discharge = 0.06 m³/s (no major rivers).
- WMO weather codes —
weathercodein current_weather uses WMO standard (0=clear, 1-3=partly cloudy, etc.). Not human-readable text. - National model tools require explicit `models` param — e.g.
dwd_icon_forecastneedsmodels: "dwd_icon_global". The genericweather_forecastauto-selects.
