How do I get a forecast for a specific latitude and longitude?

First, use the `get_point` tool with your coordinates to find the office ID and grid coordinates (gridX, gridY). Then, pass those values into the `get_forecast` tool to receive the textual forecast.

Can I check for active weather warnings in a specific state?

Yes! Use the `get_active_alerts_by_area` tool and provide the two-letter state code (e.g., 'TX' for Texas or 'FL' for Florida) to see all current watches and warnings for that area.

How do I see the current temperature at a specific airport?

Use the `get_latest_station_observation` tool with the station's ICAO ID (e.g., 'KJFK' for New York JFK or 'KLAX' for Los Angeles International) to get the most recent atmospheric readings.
