No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/jma_climate_normals for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Official JMA climate normals (30-year averages, currently 1991-2020) for one station: for each month and the year, precipitation, mean temperature, mean daily max and min temperature, wind, sunshine and, where the station observes snow, snowfall total and mean annual-maximum snow depth. Use for questions like typical late-January snowfall or temperature at a resort. Takes a station name, station_id or block number. Sourced from the Japan Meteorological Agency, climate normals.
