It should be blowing up, pulling fresh outside air over the sensor.

If you take out those two screws that hold the piece in behind the south pointing solar panel, (to the right in pic) there is a board under it with a capacitor. This is where I found my issue on the Atlas I have that dropped signal on the Access out of sunlight. Apparently there is a poor connection on that board. I fiddled with it, and now my signal isn't dropping out permanently, but is still missing some transmissions...

What I need to do is swap rain buckets and see if the issue goes away entirely.

Did anyone get the part number off the lightning detector chip?

Is it the same chip that the 6045m lightning sensor uses?

I can't make out the IC markings, but the MA5532-AE is the coil that is normally used with the AS3935 applications.
