Description: | The ORG reports precipitation rates that are more than 2 orders of
magnitude greater than those reported by the present weather sensor
when the temperature drops below -25 C. Examples of this error can
be seen in the data for January 11-13, 2000, however the problem is
not isolated to these days.
A drift occurs when temps are in the range of -25 C to -40 C that
exceeds the maximum drift allowed/expected for the instrument. The
drift is then reported as precipitation.
The manufacturer of the instrument has not yet been able to identify a
fix for the problem. |
