About OpenWeather MCP Server
Connect to OpenWeather APIs and access global weather data through natural conversation.
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 11 tools from OpenWeather through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries OpenWeather, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.
What you can do
- Current Weather — Get real-time temperature, humidity, wind, pressure, visibility and conditions for any location
- Hourly Forecast — 48-hour hourly forecast with temperature, precipitation probability and UV index
- Daily Forecast — Up to 16-day daily forecast with min/max temperatures and weather descriptions
- Weather Alerts — Active severe weather warnings and alerts for any location
- Air Quality — Current AQI and 4-day forecast with pollutant concentrations (PM2.5, PM10, O3, NO2, CO)
- Historical Weather — Weather conditions for any past date
- Sun Times — Sunrise and sunset times for any location
- Geocoding — Convert city names to coordinates and vice versa
The OpenWeather MCP Server exposes 11 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to OpenAI Agents SDK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
