Hi Aaron,
GEMPAK is not able to plot vertical wind vectors, I'm sorry to say, and omeg is
a scalar only in GEMPAK grids, apparently. I asked here at Unidata if it's
possible in the IDV, and it appears that it is (
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/ ). That's not the answer you're
hoping for, but if you have the IDV available I recommend giving it a try.
