Get the weather forecast for a US location. Returns either named 12-hour periods (default) or hourly breakdowns.

Search active weather alerts (watches, warnings, advisories) across the US.

Get the text forecast for an NWS forecast zone. Returns named forecast periods (e.g., "Today", "Tonight", "Monday") with detailed narrative text — the human-readable, zone-level forecast written by local forecasters. Completes the alert-to-forecast chain: nws_search_alerts returns each affected zone in "affectedZones" as a code plus a type, and nws_find_stations returns codes in the "forecastZon
