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 runwayoracle-nyc-central-park-temperature-nowcast-knyc-5545ee25
```

Example prompt: What's the runway temperature nowcast for New York Central Park right now, and what's the probability it's above 72°F?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a real-time, high-accuracy temperature nowcast specifically for the New York Central Park (KNYC) station, especially when you need calibrated strike probabilities (e.g. P(temp > X°F)) for weather-contingent decisions or analysis. Prefer this over generic weather APIs when accuracy metrics (RMSE), thermal memory, and probabilistic calibration matter.

## Known failure modes

- Telemetry unavailable: falls back to degraded model with OOS RMSE of 2.57°F instead of 1.09°F
- Invalid strikeF value outside -80..140°F range returns a validation error
- Payment not included or insufficient (x402 payment required, $0.05 USDC for live, $0.01 for fallback)
- Station data outage at KNYC causing stale or missing nowcast

## How this service works

New York City weather forecast API: live temperature nowcast and daily high forecast for New York Central Park (KNYC), with calibrated probability the temperature ends above/below any Fahrenheit strike. KNYC (Central Park) is the official settlement station for Kalshi KXHIGHNY and Polymarket NYC daily high temperature prediction markets. Built for AI agents trading weather prediction markets or needing real-time weather data. $0.05 with live 3h thermal-memory telemetry (out-of-sample nowcast RMSE 1.35F); $0.01 degraded fallback (RMSE 2.18F). Free catalog: https://runwayoracle.com/catalog.json. Model-conditional estimates; not financial advice.

## Output

Returns a real-time temperature nowcast for KNYC (New York Central Park) incorporating 3-hour thermal-memory telemetry, an OOS RMSE accuracy figure (1.09°F for live, 2.57°F for degraded fallback), and — if a strikeF parameter is provided — calibrated probabilities of the temperature being above or below that strike value.
