# OpenWeather

**OpenWeatherTools** enable an Agent to access weather data from the OpenWeatherMap API.

## Prerequisites

The following example requires the `requests` library and an API key which can be obtained from [OpenWeatherMap](https://openweathermap.org/api). Once you sign up the mentioned api key will be activated in a few hours so please be patient.

```shell theme={null}
export OPENWEATHER_API_KEY=***
```

## Example

The following agent will use OpenWeatherMap to get current weather information for Tokyo.

```python cookbook/tools/openweather_tools.py theme={null}
from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.tools.openweather import OpenWeatherTools

# Create an agent with OpenWeatherTools
agent = Agent(
    tools=[
        OpenWeatherTools(
            units="imperial",  # Options: 'standard', 'metric', 'imperial'
        )
    ],
    markdown=True,
)

# Get current weather for a location
agent.print_response("What's the current weather in Tokyo?", markdown=True)
```
