11 tools

• get_weather

  Plain-language weather for a place: one sentence first, then current conditions, the next 24 hours, the next 7 days, and official alerts. Use it for "what's the weather", "do I need a jacket", "is it going to rain". For a decision about doing something outdoors (a run, a hike…

• get_forecast

  The forecast for a stretch of time: "What's Saturday looking like?", "What will conditions be between 6 PM and midnight?", "this weekend". Give start_time (and optionally end_time or duration_hours). Returns a one-line summary, the temperature range, rain, wind, any conditions…

• outdoor_activity_weather

  Our flagship tool. Turns weather into a decision for a specific outdoor activity: a practical verdict (go, go_with_caveats, marginal, no_go), a one-sentence reason, the temperature and feels-like range, rain, wind, sunset, what to wear, and the concerns. Activities: walking…

• find_best_weather_window

  Finds the best time on a day for an activity. Returns the best window, an alternate, and any clearly bad stretch, each with a short reason. Windows are stretches, not exact hours: when several start times are about equally good they are reported as one stretch, and when the…

• clothing_recommendation

  What to wear for an activity at a time and place, short and practical, followed by the weather it rests on. It dresses you for the effort, not just the temperature: a runner is warmer than a person standing still at the same feels-like, and the same rules as the website's outfit…

• explain_weather

  Explains weather in plain terms for conversation: why it feels colder than the temperature, whether rain will matter on a hike, whether wind matters, whether the trail will be muddy, humidity, fog, frost, pressure. It separates what the forecast says (facts, each labelled…

• get_trail_weather

  Weather for a trail over time, sampled along the trail rather than at one point: starting conditions, how the temperature changes through the trip, rain windows, wind and gusts, humidity and dew point, wind chill and heat index, sunrise, sunset, twilight, the moon, significant…

• route_weather

  What weather you will meet as you move along a route, at the moment you reach each part of it. Not "the weather on the trail" but "what will I encounter, where, and when". Accepts a known trail_id, a GPX file, GeoJSON, an encoded polyline, coordinates, or place names. With a…

• list_trails

  Lists the trails WTDS knows by name, with length, bounds and whether we have data on which sections are exposed. Use a trail's id as trail_id in get_trail_weather or route_weather. If a trail is not listed, send the route itself.
