I'm working on a project to check variation of UV index with cloud cover. I'm trying to get the cloud cover data which I'll be using to plot the graph. I've historical data which I got from MODIS (MOD06_L2). But it doesn't has the current(today's) data. The closest date for which they have the data is 4 days back. Does anyone knows of any reliable source where I can get this data ? It will be better if the source has hourly data for cloud cover.

You might skim opendata.stackexchange.com/questions/10154/… to see if any of those meet your needs. The "cycle file" data is about as close to realtime as you can get (short of actually going outside <G>)– user3856Jul 18 '17 at 18:35

As @BarryCarter said, please see my answer at this question. You can find weather data from rp5.ru 10 min. after recording.– juminetJul 18 '17 at 19:20

@juminet I think rp5.ru gets data from the cycle files itself. Are you affiliated with rp5.ru? I think it's best to send users to official sources when possible.– user3856Jul 18 '17 at 19:27

No I'm not affiliated with rp5.ru at all. I've just found this website and found it useful. And yes, I'd like to know the official sources of data from METAR and SYNOP.– juminetJul 18 '17 at 19:33
