Hi, MetPy 0.10.0 has been released: * `potential_vorticity_baroclinic` was changed to take all 3D variables, with dimensions ordered: vertical, y, x. * MetPy has gained a simplified plotting interface designed to mimic that of GEMPAK. It uses a handful of objects on which users set attributes to values to control the plot, requiring data in an xarray `DataArray` or `Dataset`. See MetPy's plotting examples ( https://unidata.github.io/MetPy/latest/examples/index.html#plotting) for more information. * MetPy's xarray accessor now has its own versions of `loc` and `sel` that accept unit-ed values. * Added an n-point soothing function * `moist_lapse` and `dry_lapse` now accept an arbitrary starting (reference) pressure value. * `potential_vorticity_baroclinic` now works with data either on isobaric or isentropic surfaces. * MetPy now has state borders that match the boundaries of the county borders. * `SkewT` instances can now be created at an arbitrary rectangular location within a figure. * MetPy's calculations have been adjusted so that the values of constants can be overridden by changing the values in the `constants` module.
