Monitor regional threats with Claude Desktop

Keep an eye on active weather patterns by filtering events through `get_active_alerts`. You can pull specific reports for any state to see if a tornado or flood warning is currently in effect. This MCP Server feeds real-time data into your chat interface. It removes the need to manually check news sites when you are tracking potential disruptions in a specific area.

Pinpoint local alerts by coordinate

Use `get_alerts_by_point` to grab the exact status for any latitude and longitude. The tool resolves your location and returns only the relevant warnings for that precise spot. It works well for verifying if a specific project site or office location is under a weather advisory. You get the raw data from the NWS delivered straight to your agent.

Query specific weather zone status

Target your monitoring using `get_alerts_by_zone` when you need to track a defined NWS district. This is useful for keeping tabs on areas that span multiple counties or specific geographic regions. Run `get_alert_types` first if you need to confirm the correct event codes for your search. It ensures your queries return the right data every time you check the status.
