# Global Weather Now and 7-Day Forecast (MET Norway)

> Global Weather Now and 7-Day Forecast (MET Norway) is a paid API for AI agents from met-weather-production.up.railway.app, paid per call via x402, $0.006/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-22).

Returns current weather conditions plus a 24-hour hourly outlook and up to 9-day daily forecast for any city name or lat/lon coordinate, powered by the Norwegian Meteorological Institute's global model.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability global-weather-now-and-7-day-forecast-met-norway-cba7d57c
```

Example prompt: What's the current temperature, wind, and humidity in Copenhagen right now, and can you give me the 7-day daily forecast with precipitation totals?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need both current conditions and a short-to-medium range forecast (up to 9 days) in a single call, backed by a reputable national meteorological institute (MET Norway). Prefer this over generic weather APIs when global coverage, hourly current conditions, and daily min/max with precipitation totals are all needed together. It supports both city-name lookup (via GeoNames) and precise lat/lon input, making it suitable for both human-facing travel queries and machine-driven logistics or field-work workflows.

## Known failure modes

- City name not found in GeoNames database (30k+ cities covered but very small towns may be missing)
- Ambiguous city name without country code returns wrong city (e.g. 'Springfield' without country)
- Latitude/longitude out of valid range (-90..90 / -180..180) causes validation error
- Days parameter outside 1-9 range rejected
- MET Norway upstream model temporarily unavailable causing 5xx error
- Payment not processed or insufficient USDC balance causes 402 rejection

## How this service works

Weather for any city name or lat/lon worldwide: current temperature, wind, humidity, pressure, cloud and precipitation, next-24h hourly outlook and 7-day daily min/max with precipitation totals and symbols, from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute's global model. City lookup via GeoNames (30k+ cities). Use when an agent needs current conditions and a short-range forecast for any city or coordinate worldwide (travel, logistics, events, field work).

## Output

A JSON object with: a `current` block (timestamp, temperature_c, wind_speed_ms, wind_from_deg, humidity_pct, pressure_hpa, cloud_pct, precipitation_next_1h_mm, symbol_next_1h), a `daily` array of up to 9 days (date, max_c, min_c, precipitation_mm, symbol), a `location` block (lat, lon, name, country, timezone), model_updated_at timestamp, and legal/terms links.
