The MCP Weather Server provides real-time weather forecasts using the AccuWeather API.
- Fetch Hourly Forecast (up to 12 hours) via the
weather-get_hourly
tool - Access Daily Forecast (up to 15 days) via the
weather-get_daily
tool - Display Weather Data in metric (°C) or imperial (°F) units
- Provide Temperature, Conditions, Precipitation details
- Integrate with LLMs like Claude for real-time weather queries
- Supports REST Access via supergateway for HTTP/REST integration
Provides hourly weather forecasts using the AccuWeather API, allowing access to real-time weather data including temperature, conditions, and other weather details for any location.
MCP Weather Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides hourly and daily weather forecasts using the AccuWeather API.
Quick Start
You need an AccuWeather API key (free tier available).
Sign up here and create an app to get your key.
Export your API key as an environment variable:
Then run the MCP Weather server directly with:
Or, for HTTP/REST access via supergateway:
MCP Server Config Example
For integration with Claude Desktop or other MCP-compatible clients, add this to your config (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json
):
Overview
This MCP server allows large language models (like Claude) to access real-time weather data. When integrated with an LLM, it enables the model to:
- Fetch accurate, up-to-date weather forecasts
- Provide hourly weather data for the next 12 hours
- Access daily weather forecasts for up to 15 days
- Display data in both metric (°C) and imperial (°F) units
- View temperature, conditions, precipitation information, and other weather details
Prerequisites
- Node.js ≥18
- An AccuWeather API key (set via
.env
or your shell)
Setup
- Clone this repository:
- Install dependencies:
- Get an AccuWeather API key:
- Register at AccuWeather API
- Create a new app and obtain an API key
- Create a
.env
file with your API key: - Build the project:
Usage with Claude Desktop
- Configure Claude Desktop to use this MCP server:
- Open Claude Desktop
- Go to Settings > Developer > Edit Config
- Add the following to your
claude_desktop_config.json
:
- Restart Claude Desktop
- In a new conversation, enable the MCP server by clicking the plug icon and selecting "weather"
- Now you can ask Claude for weather forecasts, such as:
- "What's the hourly weather forecast for New York City?"
- "Give me the 5-day forecast for London."
- "What will the weather be like in Tokyo this week in Fahrenheit?"
- "Will it rain in San Francisco tomorrow?"

Future Enhancements
We're always looking to improve the MCP Weather Server. Here are some features we're considering for future releases:
- Extended Hourly Forecasts: Beyond 12 hours, e.g., 24 or 48 hours.
- Weather Alerts: Integration with AccuWeather's severe weather alerts API.
- Location Autocomplete: Improved location searching with autocomplete suggestions.
- Historical Weather Data: Access to past weather conditions.
If you have ideas for other features, feel free to open an issue!
