Hello, and thanks for reaching out to us!

Can you provide for me a brief record of what you're entering into your 
terminal and the output your getting? This is an issue I'm not able to recreate 
currently. Another package you have installed in your environment might be 
causing this issue. In the mean time you might try updating conda,

  conda update -n base -c defaults conda

and then creating a new Python environment with just Python and MetPy to see if 
you still get this issue,

  conda create -n <env-name-of-your-choice> -c conda-forge python metpy
  conda activate <env-name-of-your-choice>

If this works with no error, then you can verify the versions of things 
installed with `conda list` and make sure that MetPy will import successfully 
within Python. I hope this points you in the right direction, and don't 
hesitate to follow up if you continue to have this issue! Thanks again for 
reaching out.


All the best,

Drew
