NOAA · Rate Limits

Noaa Rate Limits

NOAA operates multiple distinct APIs, each with its own rate limiting policy. The National Weather Service API does not publish specific numeric limits but enforces generous thresholds; callers that exceed limits should retry after approximately 5 seconds. The Climate Data Online API enforces strict token-based limits. The Aviation Weather API enforces a hard cap of 100 requests per minute with HTTP 429 responses when exceeded.

Noaa Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for NOAA on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.

Tagged areas include Weather, Climate, Forecast, Alerts, and Ocean.
