NOAA Climate — Historical Weather Records MCP Tools for LlamaIndex (5)
These 5 tools become available when you connect NOAA Climate — Historical Weather Records to LlamaIndex via MCP:
get_climate_normals
This is the statistical baseline that defines "normal" weather for any location. Get 30-year climate normals — the baseline for what is "normal" weather
get_daily_data
This is the planet's largest archive of daily weather records. Filter by station, data types (TMAX, TMIN, PRCP, SNOW, SNWD), and date range. Stations are worldwide but densest coverage is in the US. Get daily weather data (GHCN-Daily): temperatures, precipitation, snow
get_monthly_summary
Monthly aggregates of temperature averages, precipitation totals, and degree days. Less granular than daily but ideal for climate trend analysis. Get monthly climate summary (GSOM): average temp, total precipitation, heating degree days
get_yearly_summary
Yearly temperature averages, precipitation totals, and extreme values. Perfect for long-term climate analysis spanning decades. Get annual climate summary (GSOY): yearly averages and extremes
search_stations
Returns station IDs, names, and locations for use with other climate tools. Search NCEI weather stations by location bounding box or keyword
