  • Hourly Forecast - 24-hour forecast with weather icons

  • 7-Day Forecast - Daily high/low temperatures and conditions

  • Air Quality - US AQI, PM2.5, PM10, and ozone levels

  • Unit Toggle - Switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit

  • Dual Transport - Works with stdio (Claude Desktop) and HTTP (ChatGPT)

  • Rate Limiting - 100/hour, 1000/day, 30000/month
