Aha! That was the bit I was missing! :-) I'm a happy camper now! All my lmSensor traps are working.

I haven't spotted a pattern yet. It happens at all hours on just about any process, although cron keeps on coming up more often. Hopefully switching from "monitor -S -r 128 -o prNames ..." to "monitor -S -I -r 128 -o prNames.1 ..." will fix my problem.
