The Amagumo Weather Skill accesses Japan Meteorological Agency's rain radar tiles to determine current rain intensity and short-term forecasts for the next 30 to 60 minutes. It answers queries regarding current precipitation, approaching rain clouds, and potential rain forecasts. There is no need for an API key or user login.
What this skill does
Retrieves current and near-future rain data without an API key using simple HTTP requests.
Calculates tile coordinates for specified locations using geographic coordinates (latitude, longitude) and zoom levels appropriate for urban areas.
Downloads 256x256 pixel PNG tile images representing rain data, with color indices indicating varying rain intensities.
Who it is for
This skill is designed for developers and teams using AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex. It is also suitable for meteorology enthusiasts and researchers who require real-time weather data integration into their applications or workflows without the need for additional authentication steps.
Use cases
Integrating real-time rain forecasts into urban navigation systems for dynamic route planning.
Developing weather prediction models that use immediate, localized rain data as input.
Enhancing apps that provide weather-related decision support for agriculture, construction, or outdoor events.
Technical details
Utilizes the publicly accessible rain data provided by the Japan Meteorological Agency, available without user registration.
Employs XYZ tile format and geographic calculations to map rain data to specific locations.
Reads 4-bit colormap PNG files where palette indices correspond to specific rain intensity levels, ranging from 'no rain' to 'moderately strong'.
