Figure~\ref{fig:CC_RFO_sim} shows the simulated RFO of the hybrid cloud regimes in the composite cyclone. cyclone; figure~\ref{fig:CC_RFO_sim-CC_RFO_obs} is the difference between the simulated RFO and observations.  We observe:  \begin{itemize}  \item H1 dominates the composite cyclone everywhere except the cyclone centre.  \item There is some indication of compensation between cloud regimes:   \begin{itemize}  \item the model produces H4 where H5 is observed (in the cold-air section)  \item and H2 where H3 is observed (near the cyclone centre and north-eastern quadrant)  \item H6 is produced in the model in the cold-air section, but overall mid-level clouds are lacking the model \cite{Govekar_2014}  \item The frontal structure seems to favour optically thinner clouds (H10) over the thicker clouds (H11), with the frontal band shorter and further south than in observations. Could this be an issue with composite cyclone?  \end{itemize}  \end{itemize}
