Greetings!

Apologies, there was a glitch in the code I sent you that I didn't catch while 
testing. `assign_coords` doesn't work in-place, but returns a new Dataset that 
you need to hold onto and use. There's also an issue where Metpy's plotting 
expects longitude to have some units, so you need to assign those units after 
assigning the coordinate. Try this:

    ds = ds.assign_coords(longitude=ds.longitude - 360)

    # Set units on longitude
    ds.longitude.attrs['units'] = 'degree'

Cheers!

Ryan
