[python #EFZ-818363]: Metpy Mondays 48 & 49 Satellite Data with CLASS

Greetings!

Apologies for the delayed response.

I'm not sure why this wasn't a problem in the original video, but the problem 
is occurring bevause the 179.99998, 2.982 lon/lat point is outside the domain 
for the Geostationary projection with its default central longitude of 0. An 
easy work-around is to set the central longitude to -100:

    map_crs = ccrs.Geostationary(central_longitude=-100)

Hope this helps!
