I am curious whether one of the programmers of the weewx driver or
application for the Acurite 2036C could add a means to offset the
temperature by different values between
sunrise and sunset, and sunset and sunrise. The current configuration file
(see below) allows the use of a formula to change the readings but it is
not time specific. (see below)
The Acurite 5-in-1 temperature accuracy is poor during the summer, due to
the intense summer sun heating of the instrument body causing the
temperature to read higher than the actual
temperature really is even when the fan is running. The reading can read
as much as 4° to 5° higher than the actual temperature from my experience.
This is comparing my temperature readings to nearby
CWOP weather stations within a couple miles.
