Issues with SkewT after version upgrade

[willh-3]

I upgraded my metpy version from 0.12.0 to 1.6.2 and my skewT, after small changes to update the code, has gone awry.

The only things I have changed from the original code is:

skew.shade_area(y, x1, x2, 
					**{'color': 'khaki', 'alpha': '0.3'}) 

to

skew.shade_area(y, x1, x2, 
					**{'color': 'khaki', 'alpha': 0.3}) #made the 0.3 not a string

and changing the 'p' to 'pressure' like in this line:

skew.plot_dry_adiabats(t0=tempD, pressure=PressD, linewidth=1.15,...

The before

The after

I'm aware the figures show different dates, but the data isn't super different in the actual files.

As you can see the new plot has be made thinner and the data is not scaled correctly after the initial movement from the surface.

Any ideas?

This looks like some changes in the aspect ratio, though that has been in MetPy since 0.11. You could play with passing a different aspect argument to the SkewT() creation (defaults to 80.5). You could also play with having matplotlib adjust the data limits instead of the box shape to maintain aspect ratio with:

skew.ax.set_adjustable('data')

or

skew.ax.set_aspect(80.5, adjustable='data')

I should note that there's nothing incorrect about the plot, the data points are just being skewed slightly differently. e.g. the shapes of curves look different, but if you look carefully at the individual x,y values being plotted, they're the same as before.

Appreciate the help. This looks to have solved the issue. I had to change the aspect ratio to 63.9 in order to successfully match it.

But

skew.ax.set_adjustable('datalim')

works for other options
