## MCP tools (4)

### `ukflood_warnings` (~249 tokens)

Flood warnings and flood alerts currently in force across England, from the Environment Agency. AUTHORITATIVE for "is there a flood warning in <English place>" — this is the feed the government broadcasts from, not a model. Returns each warning with its severity (Severe Flood Warning / Flood Warning / Flood Alert), the named flood area, county, river or sea, the EA message text and when it was last changed, plus a count by severity. A quiet day legitimately returns zero warnings in force; the severity counts are still returned so you can tell "nothing is happening" from "the call failed". Covers England only — Wales (NRW), Scotland (SEPA) and Northern Ireland publish elsewhere.

Input parameters:

- `county` (string): Optional county filter, exactly as the EA spells it, e.g. "Lincolnshire", "Somerset".
- `limit` (number): Max warnings to return (default 50, max 200).
- `min_severity` (number): Lowest severity to include: 1 Severe Flood Warning, 2 Flood Warning, 3 Flood Alert, 4 also include warnings no longer in force. Default 3 (all live warnings and alerts).

### `ukflood_stations_near` (~249 tokens)

Environment Agency river, groundwater, tidal and rainfall monitoring stations near a point in England, with the measures each one reports. Use this to find the station id you then pass to ukflood_station_readings. Returns station reference, label, river and catchment name, town, coordinates and the parameter/unit of every measure at that station. Example: latitude 51.5, longitude -0.12, radius_km 10 for central London.

Input parameters:

- `latitude` (number): Latitude in decimal degrees, e.g. 51.5 (London).
- `limit` (number): Max stations to return (default 20, max 100).
- `longitude` (number): Longitude in decimal degrees, e.g. -0.12 (London).
- `parameter` (string): Optional measure filter: "level" (water level), "flow" (river discharge), "rainfall", "temperature", "wind". Omit for all.
- `radius_km` (number): Search radius in kilometres (default 10, max 100).
- `river` (string): Optional river name filter, e.g. "River Thames". Can be used without coordinates.

### `ukflood_station_readings` (~218 tokens)

Telemetry readings from one Environment Agency monitoring station — water level in metres, river flow in m3/s, or rainfall in mm, typically every 15 minutes. AUTHORITATIVE for "how high is the <English river> at <place> right now". Pass a station reference from ukflood_stations_near, e.g. "5380TH" (Walthamstow, Low Hall, River Lee). Defaults to the latest reading for every measure at the station; pass since to get a time series.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (number): Max readings to return (default 50, max 500). Only applies with since.
- `since` (string): Optional ISO-8601 timestamp, e.g. "2026-09-16T00:00:00Z". When given, returns every reading since then instead of only the latest.
- `station_id` (string, required): EA station reference, e.g. "5380TH". Get one from ukflood_stations_near.

### `ukflood_areas` (~254 tokens)

The named flood areas the Environment Agency issues warnings for — the geography behind a warning code. Each area has an fwdCode (e.g. "053FWFPUWI06"), a plain description of the land it covers, its county, EA operational area, the river or sea concerned, a centroid and a quick-dial number. Filter by county or search the description text. Use this to turn a warning code from ukflood_warnings into a place, or to find the code for a place before a flood happens.

Input parameters:

- `county` (string): County filter as the EA spells it, e.g. "Lincolnshire".
- `latitude` (number): Optional latitude for a radius search, e.g. 53.22.
- `limit` (number): Max areas to return (default 25, max 200).
- `longitude` (number): Optional longitude for a radius search, e.g. -0.55.
- `radius_km` (number): Radius in kilometres when latitude/longitude are given (default 15, max 100).
- `search` (string): Case-insensitive substring matched against the area label, description and river name, e.g. "Thames".
