Matthew, Thanks for your interest in MetPy. Unfortunately, there is not an easy way to achieve what you're looking for currently. We have plans to improve the flexibility of all of the CAPE/CIN-related code, but haven't implemented those upgrades. Would you be willing to open an issue about this? https://github.com/Unidata/MetPy/issues That way we don't lose track of your request and we can milestone it along with other features.
