# AerisWeather MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect > AerisWeather MCP gives your AI agent professional-grade weather intelligence. Instead of guessing the conditions or digging through weather sites, your agent can pull real-time METAR data, 15-day forecasts, and official weather alerts for any location on earth. It's the bridge between raw meteorological data and your automated workflows, making it easy to get precise environmental context for logistics, research, or safety monitoring. ## Overview - **Category:** data-analytics - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_k0z7fUU2CqlVRkQGm1FBEBeeTiAX3DTyw21w0gTo/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** weather-api, forecasts, weather-alerts, meteorology, hyper-local-weather ## Description Imagine you're managing a fleet of delivery trucks or planning a massive outdoor event. You need to know more than just if it might rain. You need to know the exact precipitation windows, the severity of active weather alerts from official sources, and the specific conditions at a remote airport. This Connector lets your AI agent handle that heavy lifting. You can ask for a 15-day outlook, check the current humidity and wind for a specific zip code, or even pull geographical data like timezones and populations for a list of cities. It pulls from professional weather feeds so you don't have to keep tabs on multiple dashboards. Because it's hosted on Vinkius, you can plug it into your existing workflow and let your agent do the digging. Whether you're building an app that needs hyper-local data or just need to stay ahead of a storm, this connection puts professional meteorology at your fingertips. ## Tools ### get_alerts Pull active weather warnings, watches, and advisories from official sources.
