What you can do with this MCP connector
Storm Glass Marine & Weather MCP Server gives you global marine intelligence right in your agent's workflow. Your AI client uses this server to pull real-time, forecast data—everything a mariner needs from leading meteorological sources like NOAA and the MET Office.
When you need Marine Weather Data, the get_marine_weather tool provides detailed forecasts for any specific geographic coordinate. You get readings on wave height and swell direction, along with current water temperatures. This isn't just a snapshot; it’s a forecast that tells you what to expect over time. It handles both real-time conditions and future projections, giving you the environmental context needed whether you’re planning a route or checking safety margins.
When calculating Tide Extremes, simply call get_tide_extremes. This function retrieves the predicted times and heights for both high tide and low tide at any coastal spot. You can pin down exactly when the water will peak and when it'll drop, which is critical knowledge for loading docks, navigating shallow inlets, or scheduling beach operations.
The server pulls these crucial predictions based on your chosen location.
If you need to figure out the celestial timing, use get_astronomy_data. This tool gathers specific dates and timings for sunrise, sunset, moon phases, and when the moon will rise. You get precise data points that track the sun and moon's movements over time for a given location.
Beyond basic weather, you can also monitor Ocean Chemistry using environmental markers like chlorophyll and nutrient levels. This helps gauge the overall health of the water at your coordinates. When you need to Plan Offshore Operations, the server consolidates multiple data streams into one place. You can pull together tide predictions, wave forecasts, and even current information to build a single report for site planning or safety reviews.
The whole point is that you don't gotta switch between specialized APIs. Your agent manages the entire conversation with this server. Just ask your AI client a natural question—like, “What’s the tide schedule and wave height near Miami next Tuesday?”—and it handles pulling all those complex environmental forecasts into one answer.
How Storm Glass MCP Works
- 1 Subscribe to the Storm Glass server and plug in your API key.
- 2 Tell your AI client exactly what data you need (e.g., 'Tide times for Miami, Florida').
- 3 The agent executes the necessary tool calls and gives you a single, formatted answer.
The bottom line is: You talk to your agent, and it talks to Storm Glass, giving you an immediate data report.
Who Is Storm Glass MCP For?
This server is for people who need more than just a weather app. It's for the maritime planner stuck looking at three different dashboards—one for tides, one for waves, and one for moon cycles. You’re the offshore engineer needing to verify conditions before sending equipment out or the environmental scientist tracking long-term changes in water chemistry.
Uses get_tide_extremes and get_marine_weather to calculate safe, fuel-efficient routes around known shallow areas or strong currents.
Runs queries combining oceanic bio data (chlorophyll) with historical tide records to track climate change impacts over years.
Checks get_marine_weather and astronomical insights before scheduling maintenance or deep-sea equipment deployment, minimizing risk time.
What Changes When You Connect
- Marine Point Forecasts: Stop guessing on route safety. Use
get_marine_weatherto get immediate wave height and water temperature readings for any point on Earth. Your agent gives you the forecast in plain text, not a spreadsheet. - Tidal Planning: Cut out hours of manual chart consulting. The
get_tide_extremestool pulls guaranteed high and low tide times and heights, letting you plan coastal access with precision. - Full Cycle View: You don't need three separate API calls. This server lets your agent correlate wave data (
get_marine_weather) with moon phases (get_astronomy_data), giving a complete picture of environmental forces at play. - Deep Environmental Tracking: Track more than just weather. Use the tools to monitor oceanic bio markers and nutrient levels, crucial for research into climate shifts or aquaculture health.
- Immediate Operational Readiness: When you need to know if an offshore site is safe right now, your agent combines multiple inputs—tides, waves, and current conditions—into one actionable status report.
Real-World Use Cases
Planning a Deep-Sea Dive Site
A research team needs to know the optimal window for a deep-sea deployment. They ask their agent: 'What are the tide extremes and wave forecasts near coordinates X, Y?' The agent runs get_tide_extremes and get_marine_weather, telling them exactly when the water is lowest (best access) and if the swell is manageable.
Checking Port Access During Low Visibility
A shipping company needs to confirm safe entry into a port. They ask their agent for the current marine weather, specifically checking wave height. The agent uses get_marine_weather to verify conditions before authorizing passage, preventing costly delays.
Analyzing Fishing Ground Changes
An environmental consultant wants to see if nutrient levels correlate with the moon cycle. They ask the agent to combine oceanic bio data and get_astronomy_data. The resulting report helps them prove a correlation between lunar phases and local chlorophyll spikes.
Scheduling an Island Inspection
A construction foreman needs to know when it’s safest to build. He asks his agent for the tide extremes at the site coordinates, knowing that high tides make access impossible. The agent runs get_tide_extremes and provides a narrow window of opportunity.
The Tradeoffs
Using separate weather APIs
Opening NOAA for wave height, then checking the local tide chart PDF, and finally Googling moon phase. It's slow, requires three different logins, and you risk mixing data from different sources.
→
Just ask your agent to run get_marine_weather combined with get_tide_extremes. The server handles the API calls, unifying wave height, tide timing, and water temperature into a single response.
Only checking current conditions
Asking only for 'the current wave height' without knowing what that means in context. You might miss critical information like the predicted high/low tides or if the swell direction is worsening.
→
Always ask your agent to run get_marine_weather alongside get_tide_extremes. This gives you the full operational picture: current conditions plus future risk assessment.
Ignoring astronomical timing
Planning a surface survey without checking if sunrise or sunset will interfere. You might start your work and be forced to stop prematurely due to poor lighting.
→
Use get_astronomy_data first. Knowing the precise times for sun/moon phases ensures you schedule your operation around natural light cycles, maximizing working hours.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
You need this server if your work requires correlating multiple, specialized environmental factors—tides, waves, and celestial mechanics—to make a single operational decision. If your job is solely based on current local weather (e.g., 'Is it raining?'), you probably don't need this; standard forecasting tools are enough. However, if you operate in maritime logistics, construction, or deep-sea research, you must use the comprehensive nature of this server. Don't try to substitute get_marine_weather for environmental monitoring; wave height is different from chlorophyll levels. Use all three primary tools together (waves + tides + astronomy) when planning anything that lasts more than a few hours.

This server provides 3 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Available Capabilities
Coastal planning shouldn't require cross-referencing five separate charts.
Today, scheduling even a simple boat trip means pulling up NOAA for wave forecasts. Then you open a dedicated tide chart to find high/low marks relative to your planned entry window. If you also need to know if the moon phase affects currents, you're out of luck, forcing you to cross-reference multiple PDFs and websites.
With the Storm Glass MCP Server, that whole process disappears. You ask your agent: 'When is the best time next week to enter Port X?' It runs `get_tide_extremes` and `get_marine_weather` simultaneously, delivering a single answer that factors in both water levels and wave conditions.
Storm Glass Marine & Weather MCP Server: Access ocean intelligence from your chat.
Before this server, checking deep-sea environmental data meant logging into three separate vendor dashboards. You'd run a query for wave height on one platform, check tide levels on another, and then separately pull bio data—a massive time sink just to compile a single report.
Now, your agent runs all the necessary tools in sequence: `get_marine_weather`, `get_tide_extremes`, and even environmental markers. It compiles them into one coherent output that you can read and act on immediately.
