For some reason my old script which was plotting correctly is not reproducing the same figure.
Here is the line of the code:

axq.quiver([xtexth],[ytexth],[uwnd,],[vwnd,],units=units,scale=scalew,width=0.03,color='b')

However if I add 1 element to vector it will plot as before:

axq.quiver([0,xtexth],[0,ytexth],[0,uwnd,],[0,vwnd,],units=units,scale=scalew,width=0.03,color='b')

It seems the first element is ommited.
