Yes, as a matter of fact I create an identical basemap object as the
plotted gridded data. And the lines (tropical cyclone tracks) plot fine as
long as the projection is 'cyl'.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance,
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
