[python-users] Python@Unidata: February

Hi,

Time for a run down of what been happening in the world of Python @ Unidata:

MetPy
- Documentation cleaning (and hopefully no longer failing to build properly
on Read the Docs)
- Merged support for Station Plots! (
https://metpy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/examples/generated/Station_Plot.html
)
- MetPy 0.3 released (Notes here:
https://github.com/metpy/MetPy/releases/tag/v0.3.0)
- Video of AMS talk on MetPy is online (
https://ams.confex.com/ams/96Annual/webprogram/Paper286983.html)
- Fixes for pint 0.7.1

Other stuff
- Published two part blog post on working with GINI satellite data:
https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/blogs/developer/en/entry/plotting-gini-water-vapor-imagery
https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/blogs/developer/en/entry/plotting-gini-water-vapor-imagery1
- Contributed recipes for Siphon and MetPy (and dependencies) for the
experimental conda-forge project. If this project is successful, it will
make getting automated builds of Conda packages much easier.

For March:
- Another blog notebook series...maybe using NCSS for point forecasts?
- Updates to Siphon's support for CDM Remote
- Preparing for SEA (https://sea.ucar.edu/conference/2016) tutorial on
Siphon and MetPy. Hopefully this will mean some more features in MetPy. :)

As always, we welcome questions and feedback.

Until next time...

Ryan
