How to get the actual solar data from weather data?

I am trying to develop an actual weather file for simulation, so I need Global solar (wh/m2), normal solar, diffuse solar. My weather data is from NOAA. it only shows HourlySkyConditions and HourlyVisibility. I was wondering if there is any resource I can get the actual solar data, or anyway I can calculate it? Thanks ~
