DailyMeteo

dailymeteo-mcp

An MCP server for DailyMeteo. With it, an AI assistant (Claude, VS Code, Cursor and other MCP clients) can answer questions about historical weather and climate change for any land location. Data are 1 km grids from 1961 to the present.

How much warmer are July days in Belgrade now than in 1961–1990? Which was the wettest year in Lisbon since 1961? Download daily mean temperature grids for Europe for 2003.

Install

Easiest: ask your AI assistant (Claude Code, Cursor, Cline…): "Install the DailyMeteo MCP server from github.com/srpp011/dailymeteo-mcp". It will follow llms-install.md.

Claude Code plugin. The plugin includes the server and a skill that tells Claude which tool to use. It asks for your DailyMeteo email and password, which are optional:

claude plugin marketplace add srpp011/dailymeteo-mcp
claude plugin install dailymeteo@dailymeteo

The first start downloads about 60 MB. If the server shows failed in a new session, wait a minute and reconnect it with /mcp.

All other clients need uv and run uvx --python 3.12 dailymeteo-mcp. See Configuration.

Tools

Everything the DailyMeteo app offers, for land areas worldwide, from 1961 to the present:

Tool	What it does	Cost
find_location	Place name → latitude/longitude (OpenStreetMap)	free
find_area	Area name → boundary polygon and size, for area downloads	free
get_weather	Daily, monthly or annual values for a location; several variables at once; summary, yearly aggregates, trend, CSV	monthly/annual free; daily 1 credit per day and variable
get_climate_normals	Normals 1961–1990 and 1991–2020 and their change (year, months, or a calendar day)	free
account_status	Plan, API credits, bulk credits	free
request_point_history	Every variable, daily, for one location (whole record by default), CSV by email	1 bulk credit
estimate_area_download	Cost of daily rasters clipped to an area (max 3,000 km²)	free
request_area_download	Daily GeoTIFF rasters clipped to an area, by email	API credits
app_link	Opens the location and series in the DailyMeteo app (map, chart, CSV/PDF export)	free
list_gridded_files / download_gridded_files	MeteoEurope1km raster archives on Zenodo (Europe, 1961–2020, incl. sea-level pressure)	free

Variables are tmean, tmax and tmin in °C, and prcp in mm (monthly and annual values are totals).

As in the app, daily requests over 1,000 credits ask for the user's confirmation, and area downloads should be estimated before they are ordered. Repeating the same daily request is not charged again. Long series are not dumped into the conversation. They are summarised (per variable and per year) and saved as CSV.

Configuration

All environment variables are optional. Without any of them, monthly and annual values, normals, links and Zenodo grids work.

• DAILYMETEO_EMAIL and DAILYMETEO_PASSWORD: your DailyMeteo account. They enable daily values, credits, point history and area downloads. Sign up at https://app.dailymeteo.com/.
• DAILYMETEO_API_KEY: alternative for daily values only (Account → API Keys).
• DAILYMETEO_OUTPUT_DIR: where CSV files and downloads are saved (default ~/dailymeteo).
