Art,
Rather than work around the issue, have you tried asking the PyART guys?
I'm pretty sure they'd be interested in this fact. You can open an issue at
https://github.com/ARM-DOE/pyart/issues , or they have a mailing list at
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/pyart-users . I'm happy for the
code in MetPy to end up in PyART as well.
