## 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 x402-factory-iah-weather-delay-risk-48-hour-cb4ceca1
```

Example prompt: What's the weather delay risk at Houston Bush airport (IAH) for the next 48 hours — give me the 6-hour block scores and the main drivers like wind gusts or convective activity?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pre-computed, aviation-specific weather delay risk score specifically for Houston Bush (IAH) without having to interpret raw weather data yourself. It is ideal for flight planning agents, logistics platforms, or ops dashboards that need structured 6-hour risk blocks with labeled drivers rather than raw meteorological readings. Prefer this over generic weather APIs when the consumer needs a ready-to-use delay risk verdict for IAH rather than raw temperature or precipitation data.

## Known failure modes

- Forecast data unavailable if upstream weather model feed is delayed or offline
- Stale scores if the forecast hasn't been refreshed recently
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient or x402 auth is misconfigured
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in a short window

## How this service works

IAH weather delay risk for the next 48 hours — Weather-driven delay risk for Houston Bush (IAH) over the next 48 hours: 6-hour risk scores from forecast wind gusts, convective potential, winter and sustained precipitation, and heavy cloud cover at the field. Same shape as the generic delay-risk endpoint, bound to IAH.

## Output

A JSON response containing an array of 6-hour time blocks, each with a window_start, window_end, a risk_score between 0 and 1, and an array of string drivers (e.g. 'wind_gusts', 'convective_potential', 'heavy_precipitation', 'cloud_cover'). Also includes a top-level verdict string summarizing the overall delay risk outlook for the 48-hour period.
