Greetings!

I've not see any code using either the `PlotObs` (declarative) or `StationPlot` 
(regular) classes for those datasets. With that said, I don't see any reason 
why it couldn't be done, just need to get your data into a DataFrame or Xarray 
Dataset for `PlotObs` like is done in this example:

  
https://unidata.github.io/MetPy/latest/examples/plots/surface_declarative.html#sphx-glr-examples-plots-surface-declarative-py

`StationPlot` has even more detailed control and options for passing in just 
numpy arrays if you need it.

Hope this helps,

Ryan
