Hello, thanks for reaching out!

Please double check your imports and make sure you're referencing modules by 
their correct name. You need to import the `metpy.calc` module and reference it 
appropriately, for example:

  import metpy.calc as mpcalc
  
  mpcalc.get_wind_dir(u_wind, v_wind)

See this example in action in this community notebook (not tested or maintained 
by Unidata) based on that MetPy Mondays episode here: 
https://github.com/cssjessica/metpyMondays/blob/main/2018/metpyMonday38.ipynb

I hope this helps! Please follow up with a snippet of your code if not.


All the best,

Drew
