dwd weather

Brief the current German weather warnings, decode a DWD station forecast into real units, export warning areas as GeoJSON, and cross-check official warnings against crowd reports — all over the open, key-free DWD Warnwetter app API via the dwd-cli.

Skills

  • /dwd:dwd-crowd-check

    Cross-check official DWD warnings against crowd-sourced weather reports near a place, using the dwd-cli. Trigger when the user asks "are people reporting hail/rain/thunder near a city?", "what's the crowd-sourced weather right now?", "is the storm warning actually happening on the ground?", "any reports of flooding/lightning around me?", or wants ground-truth observations from the DWD Warnwetter crowd feed. Filters reports by location and category and summarises what users are actually seeing.

  • /dwd:dwd-station-forecast

    Turn a raw DWD station-overview into a readable weather forecast, using the dwd-cli. Trigger when the user asks "what's the forecast for Munich/Hamburg?", "weather at DWD station 10865", "will it rain tomorrow in a city?", "compare the forecast for two cities", or wants temperature/wind/precip for a German weather station. Decodes the API's scaled integer arrays (tenths-of-units) and epoch-millisecond timestamps that make the raw payload unreadable.

  • /dwd:dwd-warning-briefing

    Produce a single ranked severe-weather briefing for Germany from the official DWD warning feeds, using the dwd-cli. Trigger when the user asks "any weather warnings in Germany right now?", "is there a storm/thunderstorm warning?", "what severe weather is DWD warning about?", "weather alerts for the coast", or wants a quick read on current official warnings. Merges the nowcast, Gemeinde (municipality) and coast feeds, ranks by DWD severity level, and reports plain-language headlines instead of three raw JSON envelopes.

  • /dwd:dwd-warning-map

    Export active DWD weather warnings as valid GeoJSON for mapping, using the dwd-cli. Trigger when the user asks to "map the thunderstorm warnings", "export DWD warnings as GeoJSON", "show the warning areas on a map", "plot the Gemeinde warnings", or wants the warning polygons as geodata for Leaflet / geojson.io / QGIS. Pulls the nowcast and Gemeinde feeds (coast warnings carry no geometry) and emits a clean FeatureCollection of warning-area polygons.
