weather-get_daily
Get daily weather forecast for up to 15 days
LABSCO SUMMARY
Two calls, two horizons, and nothing else to learn.
The split is by how far ahead you are looking: twelve hours when the question is about today, up to fifteen days when it is about next week. Both take a location and a units argument and return the forecast, and that is the entire surface. There is no current-conditions call and no historical data — this forecasts, and stops there.
What it is
A two-tool AccuWeather forecast server split by time horizon rather than by data type.
What you get
- weather-get_hourly, the next 12 hours for a location
- weather-get_daily, up to 15 days, with the number of days as an argument
- A units argument on both tools
Requirements
An AccuWeather API key in ACCUWEATHER_API_KEY.
Setup effort
One command plus a key — npx -y @timlukahorstmann/mcp-weather, then supply credentials
USE CASES
01
Deciding whether the afternoon holds
The hourly call covers the next 12 hours at a location, which is the window that decides whether the outdoor thing happens, gets moved, or goes ahead with a jacket.
02
Planning something a week or two out
The daily call reaches up to 15 days ahead, with days setting how far to look — far enough to pick a weekend, and to see whether the pattern holds as the date gets closer.
2 tools
Counted once with only startup setup. Other versions, modes or optional credentials may expose a different list.
