Integrates with OpenStreetMap's Nominatim API to provide geocoding capabilities, allowing the server to resolve location names into coordinates for accurate weather data retrieval.
Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@DWD MCP Server What's the current weather and forecast for Berlin?"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
An MCP server (Model Context Protocol) for weather data from the German Weather Service (DWD) via Bright Sky API.
Current Weather (get_current_weather) - Temperature, wind, precipitation, cloud cover, etc.
Weather Forecast (get_weather_forecast) - Hourly forecasts and daily summaries
Weather Alerts (get_weather_alerts) - Official DWD warnings (storm, thunderstorm, frost, etc.)
Weather Stations (find_weather_station) - Find nearest DWD stations

Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose with no overlap: find_weather_station locates stations, get_current_weather provides current conditions, get_weather_alerts retrieves warnings, and get_weather_forecast gives predictions. The descriptions reinforce these distinct functions, making misselection unlikely.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern using snake_case: find_weather_station, get_current_weather, get_weather_alerts, and get_weather_forecast. The verbs 'find' and 'get' are appropriately used for different actions, maintaining a predictable naming convention throughout.
With 4 tools, this server is well-scoped for a weather data service, covering key operations: locating stations, retrieving current weather, accessing alerts, and obtaining forecasts. Each tool earns its place without being excessive or insufficient for the domain.
The tool set provides complete coverage for a weather server, including station lookup, current conditions, warnings, and forecasts. There are no obvious gaps; agents can perform typical weather-related tasks without dead ends, ensuring effective workflow support.
