NOAA Space Weather — Solar & Geomagnetic Intelligence MCP Tools for Windsurf (6)
These 6 tools become available when you connect NOAA Space Weather — Solar & Geomagnetic Intelligence to Windsurf via MCP:
get_aurora_forecast
Powered by real-time solar wind data. The gold standard for aurora forecasting worldwide. Get the aurora probability forecast map data (Ovation model)
get_dst_index
Measures the intensity of the ring current around Earth. Values below -50 nT indicate a moderate storm, below -100 nT a strong storm, below -250 nT a severe storm. Critical for satellite operators and power grid monitoring. Get the Dst index — real-time geomagnetic storm intensity
get_k_index_forecast
Use this to plan for aurora viewing, satellite vulnerabilities, or HF radio propagation impacts. Get the 3-day Kp index forecast — predicted geomagnetic activity
get_planetary_k_index
Kp ranges 0-9. Values ≥5 indicate geomagnetic storms with visible aurora at lower latitudes. Updated every 3 hours. Essential for aurora hunters, satellite operators, and power grid managers. Get the NOAA Planetary K-index — geomagnetic activity and aurora probability
get_solar_flux
7 solar flux index. Higher values (>100 SFU) indicate increased solar activity, more sunspots, and higher probability of solar flares and CMEs. Normal quiet-sun values are 70-80 SFU. Get the 10.7cm solar radio flux — a proxy for solar activity level
get_solar_wind
The solar wind drives geomagnetic storms — when speed exceeds 500 km/s with southward Bz, aurora probability increases dramatically. Get real-time solar wind speed and magnetic field conditions
