Temperature readings.
We know of at least one resident who collates weather information
and uses our site as a "back-up" to his readings. We try to explain here why our
readings are only as accurate as we can make them. Our temperature reading uses
software which takes a series of shade air temperature readings during the
afternoon which should be the warmest part of the day. The software takes a
continuous series of readings and once a maximum has been reached it
automatically updates the web site. The problem is that the maximum is
detected when the later readings start to fall (there is no other way that a
maximum can be known). However despite the software having a built in delay the
temperature can "dip" and then rise again giving a false low "day's high"
reading. The only way to avoid this would be to delay updating the site until
well into the evening which we don't want to do. As the software uses a network
connection the update can also be delayed by web congestion.
So now you know why the above temperature is sometimes wrong! ;-) |
