[python #XLS-774354]: MetPy Hodographs

Greetings!

I think the `text()` and `annotation()` methods on the matplotib Axes that you 
use to create the Hodograph might be relevant here. For examples of how they 
work, I'd look at matplotlib's examples:

  https://matplotlib.org/stable/gallery/index.html#text-labels-and-annotations

Hope this helps!
