Hi, MetPy 1.1.0 has been released: * Added classes to read a variety of data in GEMPAK-formatted files * Added `showalter_index` calculation * Added `PlotGeometry` to the simplified plotting interface, which makes it easy to plot a variety of geospatial data (e.g. SPC convective outlooks or NHC hurricane wind swaths in geojson format). See this notebook ( https://gist.github.com/23ccozad/8c5ee73731c466be2ed00817aabd792d) for examples. * Significantly improved METAR parser to output both the visibility and remarks part of the reports, as well as better handle more weather codes (like 'FU') * Improvements to simplified plotting interface including better notebook tab completion, support for controlling font size, and GEMPAK-like zooming on areas (e.g. '+us') * Improved detection of problematic soundings in calculations * Dropped support for Python <3.7 and NumPy <1.17 * Reduced the time it takes to import `metpy.io` * Fixed up a variety of unit issues in calculations Contributors ------------ @dopplershift, @joejoezz, @dcamron, @C2oWisComing, @jthielen, @github-actions[bot], @lswenson, @kgoebber, @23ccozad, @sgdecker, @ShunsukeHoshino, @jrleeman, @albernsrya, @lbunting, @dlaw, @akrherz, @mabaxter, @michaelavs, @nawendt, @eliteuser26 contributed code to this release.
