Tools & capabilities
Crosby, TX Weather tools 14
get_current_conditionsCurrent weather for Crosby, TX: temperature, feels-like, sky, precip chance, humidity, dew point, UV index, measured air quality (EPA/AirNow, Houston metro area), and sunrise/sunset.get_forecastForecast for Crosby, TX from the U.S. National Weather Service. Returns the 7-day day/night forecast, or upcoming hourly periods if `hours` is given (up to 48 — through about two days out).get_alertsActive NWS weather alerts for Crosby, TX. Returns an empty list when none are active.get_tropical_outlookActive Atlantic tropical cyclones from the NOAA National Hurricane Center, AND the areas it is watching for development that do not have names yet, with their formation chances. Covers hurricane season (June–November) for Crosby, TX. Returns an explicit all-clear only when there are neither — a quiet CurrentStorms list does not by itself mean a quiet basin.get_pollenThe Houston Health Department's measured daily pollen and mold count (National Allergy Bureau scale) — tree, weed, and grass pollen plus mold spores, with the species actually counted. A real measurement, not a model; counts publish weekday mornings and apply regionally to Crosby, TX.get_burn_banCurrent outdoor-burning ban status for Harris County, TX (which includes Crosby) from the Texas A&M Forest Service. Countywide only — TFS has no sub-county resolution, so this is never a Crosby-specific status.get_air_qualityCurrent U.S. Air Quality Index for the Houston metro area (the Houston-Galveston-Brazoria reporting area, which includes Crosby, TX). Measured by EPA/AirNow monitors when available (measured:true), with an Open-Meteo modeled fallback (measured:false). Regional, not a Crosby-pinpoint reading.get_crosby_newsRecent local news headlines for Crosby, TX and nearby northeast Harris County communities, aggregated from public sources and filtered for relevance. Empty when nothing recent.get_school_eventsUpcoming Crosby ISD school-calendar events: first/last day of school, holidays, no-school and early-release days, testing windows, and campus activities.get_river_levelsCurrent water levels and NWS flood stages for the rivers and bayous that flood Crosby, TX and northeast Harris County (Cedar Bayou, San Jacinto River, Luce Bayou, and more). Each gauge reports its stage, flow, flood category, and thresholds.get_fishingLive water conditions for the waters people fish near Crosby, TX — Lake Houston, the San Jacinto River forks, the Trinity River, and nearby bayous — from USGS real-time monitoring. Full stations report temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and turbidity; some fished bayous report water level only. A nearby-station reading, not the exact fishing spot, and conditions rather than a guaranteed bite.get_trafficLive traffic incidents and scheduled lane closures on the roads Crosby, TX drives — US-90, FM-2100, FM-1942, and the Crosby stretch of IH-10 East — from Houston TranStar, plus links to the corridor traffic cameras. High-water road reports appear here during floods. Empty lists mean quiet roads.- +2 more on the listing page
