Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

We've all typed constants into our scripts before. It can be error prone and we may not always use the exact same value for the constant. This week we'll show you how to use MetPy's constants library to take the hassle out of your code!
MetPy Mondays #19 - Skew-T Parcel Path
20 November 2017
Now that we've got all of the data plotted in our Skew-T diagram, we might want to know the expected path for a parcel. This week we'll calculate parcel paths and plot them on our Skew-T to round out a publication ready diagram.
MetPy Mondays #18 - Skew-T Fiducial Lines
13 November 2017
Continuing our Skew-T series, this week we'll learn how to add fiducial lines to our Skew-T plot. Theses lines, such as adiabatic paths and mixing ratios, give us a visual reference to aid interpreting the plot and they can be added with just a few lines of code using MetPy!
MetPy Mondays #17 - Resampling Wind Barbs
06 November 2017
Last week we were able to plot a basic Skew-T, but the wind barbs suffered from over-crowding in some parts of the plot. This week we'll look at a few strategies to deal with this problem including downsampling and nearest-neighbor resampling.
