MetPy is a collection of tools in Python for reading, visualizing and performing calculations with weather data.
`laplacian` is implemented naively and just sums the second derivative across the selected dimensions, which is all of them by default. When given an xarray, we could: 1. skip any...
It would be good to update our surface bulletin parser to have enough information in the parsed product to support automatic plotting using `PlotGeometry`--if at all possible (this might not...
Hello everyone. I am trying to calculate the geostrophic wind from wrfout. I used xwrf and wrf-python.getvar to extract geopotential (z), and then used metpy to calculate the geostrophic wind....
We should add a Stüve plot, which I believe will simply be a skewT with rotation set to zero. Probably a subclass? 
Currently all the traits in the simplified plotting interface are documented by setting the `__doc__` attribute. Traits have a `help` parameter in the constructor that we can use instead, and...
With https://github.com/pydata/pydata-sphinx-theme/pull/1354 (which should be in 0.14) the theme now has support for a warning bar on old docs built into the theme. This should allow us to reduce what...
`dask` implicitly calls `.compute()` on an array used in a conditional statement. This is not desirable when chaining together metpy functions with `dask` arrays as inputs. An example of this...
### What should we add? Py-ART is in the process of moving its colortables to a separate package (xref https://github.com/ARM-DOE/pyart/issues/1431), which can now be found at https://github.com/openradar/cmweather. Perhaps MetPy could...
Analytic LCL
@brianmapes pointed out this paper: http://romps.org/pubs/pubs-2016-lcl.html that has an analytic LCL. The code on the author's webpage has some syntax/import issues. It would be interesting to compare this to our...
BUFR is another of those formats where everyone relies upon some other C library to read the files. The binary encoding seems simple enough--the challenge will be tables.
