Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Vertical Weather every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 3

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

atmospheric

get_atmospheric_profile

Wind, temperature, pressure, humidity and air density at chosen heights above a point. Each level has wind_u_ms (towards east), wind_v_ms (towards north), wind_speed_ms, wind_direction_deg (where the wind comes FROM, clockwise from north; 0 at zero speed means calm), temperature_k, pressure_pa, specific_humidity_kg_kg, relative_humidity_pct and density_kg_m3. valid_time is the model time actually used; provenance names the GFS run and grid point. Heights outside the model column are refused with the range that is available.

capabilities

get_capabilities

Current coverage (time range, heights, fields) and usage limits. No API key needed.

usage

get_usage

Today's data-fetch count and remaining daily allowance for the caller's account (UTC day).

Vertical Weather — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Vertical Weather do?

It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_atmospheric_profile, get_capabilities, get_usage. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Vertical Weather working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 1227 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Vertical Weather?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Vertical Weather need an API key?

No. Vertical Weather completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Vertical Weather?

It answers our handshake in 1227 ms on average, which is faster than 3% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
