NCEI Climate Data Online (NOAA Archive)

What is the NCEI Climate Data Online (NOAA Archive) MCP Server?

Connect your AI agent to the NCEI Climate Data Online archive and explore decades of global environmental records through natural language.

What you can do

  • Datasets & Categories — Browse primary data groupings like Daily Summaries (GHCND) or Global Summary of the Month (GSOM) using list_datasets and list_datacategories.
  • Location Discovery — Find specific geopolitical entities, cities, or zip codes using list_locations and list_locationcategories to narrow your search.
  • Station Metadata — Identify weather observing platforms and stations worldwide with list_stations to find the exact source of climate records.
  • Data Type Inspection — Query specific climate variables such as precipitation (PRCP), average temperature (TAVG), or snow depth using list_datatypes.
  • Historical Analysis — Retrieve precise climate observations for specific timeframes and locations to power research or environmental reporting.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Request a free API Token from the NOAA NCEI portal
  3. Start querying historical weather data directly from your AI client

Who is this for?

  • Data Scientists & Researchers — quickly locate and verify available climate datasets without manual API exploration
  • Environmental Consultants — retrieve station metadata and location-specific weather history for impact reports
  • Developers — integrate reliable, government-backed climate data into applications using natural language queries

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I find the specific ID for a weather station in a certain city?

You can use the list_stations tool and provide a locationid. To find the correct location ID first, use the list_locations tool to search by city or state name.

02

What is the difference between a Data Category and a Data Type?

Data Categories (retrieved via list_datacategories) are broad groups like 'Temperature' or 'Precipitation'. Data Types (retrieved via list_datatypes) are specific codes like 'TMAX' (Maximum temperature) or 'PRCP' (Precipitation amount).

03

Can I see what datasets are available for a specific date range?

Yes, the list_datasets tool accepts startdate and enddate parameters. This allows you to filter the archive for datasets that have coverage during your period of interest.

04

How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.

05

Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?

Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.

06

How do I list all connected MCP servers?

Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
