Wxsim modelling in the UK

Hi !
I know I’m from the U.S., but I was wondering if you have tried using Ready Meteogram data from the NOAA Air Resources Lab @ http://www.arl.noaa.gov/ready/cmet.html ? It’s world wide
and the is data free. It is quite accurate for cloud cover (and everything else)…for me anyway. I have found FOUS can “exaggerate” the results
