Hello!

Yes, as long as you have all the appropriate inputs for these functions, you 
can use your own data and plot the results. MetPy does support calculating 
static stability with `metpy.calc.static_stability` if you provide pressure and 
temperature. The documentation for this is available here: 
https://unidata.github.io/MetPy/latest/api/generated/metpy.calc.static_stability.html

If you've never used MetPy, you'll also have to make sure to make sure you've 
appropriately attached the physical units of your own data to the numbers you 
read in. This can be done through metpy.units or MetPy's xarray parsing 
functionality. Check out the MetPy User Guide and collection of examples 
available on the documentation website: 
https://unidata.github.io/MetPy/latest/userguide/index.html

If you have any trouble navigating this, don't hesitate to follow up with us. 
Thanks!


All the best,

Drew
