I know Gladstone wind analysis isn't trustworthy these days, but how about their temp analysis?
Here's mine, and this is something I've been seeing lately:

The equipment I'm using is a WH32E in a Davis radiation shield, which is in a separate location from my ultrasonic anemometer. The temp sensor is about 4 foot from the ground in my backyard and has some tall trees about 10 foot west of it, with some smaller brush about 5 feet away.
I know this is a crappy picture, but it gives you location information:

I haven't done any hi/lo compensation for the temp sensor on the 5000 console. It reads what it reads.
When I look at the CWOP siting suggestions for temp sensors, it says: Place sensors at a horizontal distance of 2 times the height of the nearest object (tree, structure, etc). [Example: 40 feet away from a 20 foot tall tree].
How important is this? Could this be causing my readings to be too low or too high? Or am I worrying about nothing?
