dwd-mcp 🌤️

mcp-name: io.github.mohammad-abbasi-sh/dwd-mcp

Unofficial read-only MCP server for DWD (Deutscher Wetterdienst) — German weather from the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD): ICON-model forecasts and current conditions via Open-Meteo, official DWD severe-weather warnings, and pollen counts. No key, no login.

Built by Mohammad Abbasi as part of the "Germany MCP factory". Not affiliated with DWD (Deutscher Wetterdienst).

For AI agents

Add to your MCP client config (stdio):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dwd": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["dwd-mcp==0.1.0"]
    }
  }
}

Or run locally: python -m dwd_mcp.server (needs mcp<2, httpx).

Description

dwd_forecast

ICON-model forecast (hourly + daily) — place (e.g. "Berlin"), days 1..7

dwd_current_weather

Current conditions — place (e.g. "München")

dwd_warnings

Official DWD warnings — state (e.g. "Bayern" or "BY"), min_level 1..4

dwd_pollen

Pollen counts by type — place (e.g. "Berlin"), days 1..7

dwd_find_place

Geocode German places — query (e.g. "München")

dwd_health

Reachability probe (ok / blocked / error) — one polite request

Notes

  • Forecasts and current conditions come from the DWD ICON model via Open-Meteo (api.open-meteo.com) — the DWD's own numerical model, free, no key.

  • dwd_warnings reads the official DWD warnapp feed (www.dwd.de/DWD/warnungen/warnapp/json/warnings.json) — a warnWetter.loadWarnings({...}); JSONP wrapper, stripped here. Warnings are sorted by level (highest first).

  • dwd_pollen is CAMS pollen data via the Open-Meteo air-quality API, not DWD data — the tool output says so. DWD publishes no public pollen JSON (verified 2026-11-10: the warnapp pollen path is a 404).

  • Daily station observations (CDC) are intentionally out of scope — pipeworx-io/mcp-dwd-climate already covers them in the official registry.

Tests: 22/22 green (15 offline + 7 live, 2026-11-10).

Available Tools

6 tools
dwd_current_weatherA

Current DWD ICON conditions for a German place: temperature, humidity, apparent temperature, wind speed/direction, weather. place: e.g. "Berlin" or "Hamburg".

Inputs: place. Returns: result

dwd_find_placeA

Find German places by name and return coordinates. query: e.g. "MĂĽnchen" or "Freiburg". German hits first.

Inputs: query (required). Returns: result

dwd_forecastA

DWD ICON-model forecast for a German place: current conditions, hourly (temperature, precipitation probability, wind, weather) and daily (min/max, precipitation probability, sunrise/sunset). place: e.g. "Berlin" or "MĂĽnchen". days: 1..7 (default 3).

Inputs: days, place. Returns: result

dwd_healthA

Check whether the DWD weather sources are reachable right now.

Returns status ok (HTTP 200), blocked (HTTP 403/429 — bot wall or rate limit) or error, plus the HTTP status and the probed URL. One polite request; it does not fetch any listings.

Inputs: no named parameters. Returns: result

dwd_pollenA

Pollen counts for a German place, by type (alder, birch, grass, mugwort, ragweed, olive) — hourly plus per-day maximum. NOTE: pollen data comes from CAMS via the Open-Meteo air-quality API, not from DWD. place: e.g. "Berlin". days: 1..7 (default 2).

Inputs: days, place. Returns: result

dwd_warningsA

Official DWD severe-weather warnings, newest/highest level first. state: filter by Bundesland — German name ("Bayern"), short code ("BY") or region substring ("Kassel"); empty = all of Germany. min_level: 1..4 (default 1).

Inputs: state, min_level. Returns: result

    Scored across 6 tools

    Disambiguation4/5

    Each tool targets a distinct data type (warnings, pollen, place lookup, current conditions, health, forecast), so selection is mostly unambiguous. The only fuzziness is dwd_current_weather vs dwd_forecast, since the forecast also returns current conditions, but the descriptions make the hourly/daily emphasis clear.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    Every tool uses the same dwd_ prefix with a snake_case noun/verb phrase (dwd_current_weather, dwd_find_place), giving a perfectly predictable pattern. No mixed conventions appear.

    Tool Count5/5

    Six tools is a tight, well-scoped surface for a German weather server, with each tool earning its place. Nothing feels padded or missing at the catalog level.

    Completeness4/5

    The surface covers warnings, pollen, place resolution, current conditions, forecast, and source health — a solid lifecycle for weather queries. Minor gaps exist: no historical/archive data, no station-observed measurements, and warnings can only be filtered by state rather than by resolved place coordinates.
