What is this MCP server?
- NHC storm tracks and forecast advisory text via MCP tools
- Active watches and warnings for agent-readable situational summaries
- HURDAT2 historical hurricane archive access
- stdio MCP on PyPI as nhc-mcp with uvx launch hint v0.1.0
- Pairs with other ocean-mcp servers for imagery and recon context

What problem does it solve?
Building storm-aware features means juggling NHC advisories, zones, and historical archives manually instead of letting the agent query them in context.
Who is it for?
Solo builders shipping Atlantic hurricane dashboards, alert helpers, or research agents grounded in official NHC products.
Skip if: Operators who need certified emergency alerting without building their own ingestion and liability review.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Register nhc-mcp so your agent can pull current hurricane intelligence and HURDAT2 history while you implement maps, alerts, or APIs.
- MCP tools for NHC tracks, advisories, and active watches or warnings
- HURDAT2 historical query path for agent-driven analytics
- Reusable hurricane data layer for maps and APIs

Journey fit
Build is the canonical phase because NHC MCP connects operational hurricane products into your product’s agent toolchain. Integrations captures storm tracks, forecast advisories, watches and warnings, and historical HURDAT2 access as external data tools.
How it compares
Authoritative NHC data bridge over MCP, not a consumer hurricane app or generic news aggregator skill.
