Read Weatherbit forecasts, weather history, air quality, agriculture, energy, and API usage. For operations teams and analysts using Weatherbit commercial APIs. Hosted by usefulapi — connect from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client.
Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.
Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:
Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"weatherbit": {
"url": "https://weatherbit.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"weatherbit": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://weatherbit.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.
Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:
Other MCP clients (Windsurf, Cline, Zed and more): add the URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser. Do not add an Authorization header: see Before you connect.
Read current conditions and daily or hourly forecasts for a coordinate, including temperature, precipitation and wind.
weatherbit_current_weather weatherbit_daily_forecast weatherbit_hourly_forecast
Retrieve daily historical conditions over a bounded date range to compare temperature and precipitation across periods.
weatherbit_daily_history
Read current pollutant concentrations and hourly air-quality forecasts for a coordinate when your Weatherbit plan includes access.
weatherbit_current_air_quality weatherbit_air_quality_forecast
Retrieve agriculture and energy forecast data, including soil, evapotranspiration, degree-day and irradiance fields supported by your subscription.
weatherbit_agriculture_forecast weatherbit_energy_forecast
Read usage counters and reset times before planning further lookups. The usage check itself consumes one standard Weatherbit request.
weatherbit_subscription_usage
The login page asks for your Weatherbit API key.
Copy your API key from your Weatherbit account dashboard. This hosted commercial integration requires a paid commercial-use subscription; Free, Trial and Hobbyist subscriptions do not license commercial use. Historical, air-quality, agriculture and energy endpoints need the corresponding plan access. Connecting checks /subscription/usage once and uses one standard Weatherbit request. Tool calls also consume your Weatherbit quota, separately from UsefulAPI usage. A new key creates a separate UsefulAPI identity. Your key is sent only to Weatherbit and is never returned in tool results.
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Weatherbit API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
Turn on the Weatherbit connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.

weatherbit_daily_history | read | Daily Weatherbit history Read daily historical weather over at most 31 days, end date exclusive. Historical API quota can count multiple requests for the date range. Requires a historical-data subscription. |
weatherbit_current_air_quality | read | Current Weatherbit air quality Read current AQI and pollutant concentrations. Consumes Weatherbit quota; requires air-quality API access (Business/Enterprise). |
weatherbit_air_quality_forecast | read | Weatherbit air quality forecast Read up to 72 hourly AQI and pollutant forecasts. Consumes Weatherbit quota; requires air-quality API access (Business/Enterprise). |
weatherbit_agriculture_forecast | read | Weatherbit agriculture forecast Read the 8-day agriculture forecast including soil and evapotranspiration fields. Consumes Weatherbit quota; requires agriculture API access (Business/Enterprise). |
weatherbit_agriculture_history | read | Historical agriculture weather Read daily or hourly agriculture history over at most 31 days (7 for hourly), end date exclusive. Consumes historical API quota; requires agriculture API access. |
weatherbit_energy_forecast | read | Weatherbit energy forecast Read degree-day and irradiance forecasts. Consumes Weatherbit quota; requires energy API access (Business/Enterprise). Optional temperature threshold; the vendor default is 18 C. |
weatherbit_energy_history | read | Historical energy weather Read historical degree-day and irradiance data, end date exclusive, at most 31 days (7 for hourly). Consumes historical API quota; requires energy API access. |
weatherbit_usage_status | Usage status (free-tier meter) Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter. | |
weatherbit_request_feature | Request a missing feature Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Weatherbit tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter. | |
weatherbit_upgrade | Upgrade to Pro (unlimited*) Get Pro: unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 a month) on Weatherbit (the free tier caps monthly usage). Plans: "monthly" — $9/month; "yearly" — $90/year (2 months free). Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. *A fair use limit applies. For heavy use (near Pro's limit): "plus" or "plus_yearly" — Pro+, $39/month or $390/year, unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 100,000 a month); an existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Otherwise returns a short link to open in your browser (it opens Stripe Checkout); after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter. | |
weatherbit_cancel_subscription | Cancel the Pro subscription Cancel the caller's Weatherbit Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run weatherbit_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter. |
| Plan | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 tool calls / month |
| Proper user | $9/mo · $90/yr | Unlimited* |
*Pro fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month on this server. For more, write to [email protected].
Pro covers this Weatherbit server only. Subscribe with weatherbit_upgrade (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). Cancel any time with weatherbit_cancel_subscription: Pro continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and running weatherbit_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].
Plan around upcoming weather. Compare historical weather. Inspect air-quality conditions. Review agriculture and energy forecasts. Check remaining API quota. See what you can do for the details.
No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Weatherbit. The server calls the Weatherbit API with your own Weatherbit access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.
Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.
The login page asks for your Weatherbit API key. See Before you connect for where to find it.
No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Weatherbit API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Weatherbit API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Weatherbit.
All 12 Weatherbit tools are marked read-only.
The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month), for this Weatherbit server only. Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period. Run weatherbit_usage_status to see how many calls you used.
Ask the AI to run weatherbit_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run weatherbit_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.
Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with weatherbit_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.
Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.
This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
