Some of the local lakes and ponds are finally starting to freeze over here in Leeds, Maine. I say finally, but in reality they typically start to freeze over during the first two weeks of November. We had a very warm October, but once we turned the corner into November, it cooled off significantly.
I took the chance today to take my Davis VP2 apart completely and gave it a good deep clean before winter really sets in. Lets just say I found plenty of spiders/webs and dirt build up, especially inside the radiation shield plates. I imagine having it clean as new now will make it at least a bit more accurate.
