15/05/2010:
At approximately 08h00 SAST the station main console was reset to
factory default. Thereafter, cumulative rain fall readings were zeroed
and all relative barometric pressure readings were incorrect.
Initially
the 'relative' baro readings would have been an estimated 30 hPa less
than actual. An attempt to correct this resulted in a set of readings
some 20 hPa over. By 17h00 SAST on the 16/08/2010 readings would have
been corrected.
21/05/2010:
At approximately 16h00 SAST the Anemometer was repositioned to a higher,
more open position. Wind speed and direction are expected to be more
consistent and accurate.
16/06/2010: It has been
noted that the station looses outdoor temperature and wind data when the
outdoor ambient temperature drops below approx 4.5 deg C and then will
automatically recover once the ambient temperature has risen again.
Problem is ongoing. Cause of the problem is not known.
