The SigWx does show tops (FL100+) but they are usually way off.

That's why a "cloud tops metar" would be great.

One can get it (as tephigrams) from two American university websites that carry worldwide baloon ascent data but this happens only at 0000Z & 1200Z - of some use for a daytime flight but limited to very stable air masses.

Bookworm - do you have a URL?
