How this service works
The National Weather Service office, grid X/Y, timezone, forecast and county zones and radar station for a US coordinate.
Output
Returns structured NWS metadata for the given coordinate including the responsible NWS office identifier, grid X and Y values for the point, the local timezone, the forecast zone ID, the county zone ID, and the nearest radar station identifier.
Example use cases
Weather app grid initialization
“I need the NWS grid point and forecast zone for latitude 37.7749 and longitude -122.4194 in San Francisco so I can pull official NWS forecasts for that location.”
Emergency alert zone routing
“Which NWS county zone and forecast zone cover the coordinate 29.7604° N, -95.3698° W near Houston, Texas?”
Radar station assignment for monitoring
“What radar station and NWS office are responsible for the area at latitude 41.8827 and longitude -87.6233 in Chicago?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://fittings.sh/v1/nws/point-metadataWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to resolve a US coordinate to NWS-specific identifiers (office, grid, zones, radar) as a prerequisite for fetching NWS forecast data or routing weather alerts. Prefer this over general geolocation endpoints when you specifically need NWS grid metadata rather than address or administrative boundary lookups.
Side effects
- Coordinate is outside the US or its territories — NWS only covers US locations, returns an error
- Invalid or out-of-range latitude/longitude values
- NWS upstream API unavailability causing failure
- Coastal or offshore coordinates with no NWS grid coverage
