You can create the vector from the u and v using the vecr Jython procedure
or by using the "Grid->Make flow vectors from grid relative u and v data" 
formula.

You can use the Grid->Create Grid Diagnostic formula and in the
dialog, use  dirn(vecr(u,v)).  You will then be prompted for the
u and v variables and can select your u and v grids at that point.
Or you could create a new formula to hold dirn(vecr(u,v)) so you can
call it over and over.
