Hello, and thanks for the follow-up.

Without seeing the exact code and data, this looks correct to me. If you are 
getting errors, please follow up with a code sample and copy of the traceback 
you are receiving. Please do update when you can though, multiple bugs and 
assumptions have been fixed in our kinematic calculations since 2020! I hope 
this helps.


Happy 2024!

Drew


> Let's for my 2D arrays, I have shapes of (150,245), with the first dimension

> So for my temperature, u, and v arrays, they are all 150 by 245.

> I got my dx and dy from metpy.calculations.lat_lon_grid_deltas. The resulting
