I think the basic problem is that you are trying to use a colorbar as a legend in a case where it doesn't really makes sense; the colorbar is mapping a range of values to a range of colors, and you have values that are outside that range. There are a couple ways to fix the problem: 1) Try using "colorbar(extend='both')". This is a workaround, but it may do what you want. 2) Explicitly specify a list of contour levels that are within the range of your clim. This is a better solution.
