gridded_history_15km

Gridded Weather - Global 15km

Global 15km gridded weather history (ERA5 + NOAA GFS). Use geolocator first for coordinates.

Call gridded_15km_available_variables first to verify available fields before querying.

Data source: ERA5 (historical) for dates older than 7 days; GFS for the last 7 days.
Latency: DAILY has minimal lag; HOURLY lags ~1 week; MONTHLY lags ~2 months; ANNUAL through last complete year.

For CONUS temperature and wind queries, prefer gridded_history_location_2km for higher resolution.
Use this tool for the full variable set, non-CONUS locations, and general atmospheric queries.

Interannual mode (interannual=True): Repeats a calendar window across years for climatological analysis
(e.g., Mar 1-8 for every year 1990-2025). Use for trend, anomaly, or "is this unusual?" questions.
Prefer fields='core' to avoid unnecessary latency and token cost.
