Weather MCP Server
About
Creating MCP (Model Context Protocol) weather-related projects involves setting up an MCP server that can fetch and provide weather data.
Explore
- get_alerts(state) returns active weather alerts for a US state.
- get_forecast(latitude, longitude) returns a short-term forecast.
- Leverages the National Weather Service API.
- Requires Python 3.7+ and the httpx library.
- Uses standard I/O for transport.
Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Weather MCP ServerCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
- Python 3.7+
- httpx
- MCP Framework mcp[cli]
so install, run:
uv add mcp[cli] httpx requests
configuration snippet for your MCP client (config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"weather": {
"command": "C:/path/to/your/uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"C:/path/to/your/project",
"run",
"weather.py"
]
}
}
}
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.
{
"mcpServers": {
"weather mcp server": {
"mcp-bittush8789": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"run",
"weather.py"
]
}
}
}
}McpServers
{
"mcp-bittush8789": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"run",
"weather.py"
]
}
}This MCP server fetches weather data from the National Weather Service API. It provides two tools:
- get_alerts(state: str)
Returns active weather alerts for a given US state (using its two-letter code).
- get_forecast(latitude: float, longitude: float)
Returns a short-term weather forecast for a specified location.
Requirements
- Python 3.7+
- httpx
- MCP Framework mcp[cli]
so install, run:
uv add mcp[cli] httpx requests
Usage
Run the server with:
uv run weather.py
The server uses standard I/O for communication.
