My windmill for W155, where the outdoor temperature sensor is, shows too high outdoor temperature, why?
• The metrological standard height for air temperature measurement is 6, 56 feet above the ground. The air temperature can increase a lot if your instruments are higher than the standard. Therefore it is important, that when comparing two weather stations or a weather station and an official measurement that they are placed at the exact same height and under the exact same conditions. • This kind of weather station is constructed to contain a lot of information in each sensor to avoid interference. That is why the windmill also measures the air temperature. The windmill is often installed on the roof of a house to increase the accuracy of the other measurements from the windmill. This can cause a difference in the measurement of the air temperature compared to the metrological standard height and because the windmill is often in the sun on the roof of the house. • All electronic weather stations are calibrated after the following procedure: A very accurate thermometer gives you a tempe
