Topic: 5-in-1 spurious data

[hofpwx]

Why does my 5-in-1 occasionally report ridiculously spurious data?

I get wind gusts of 526.9 mph (house shudders a little) and temps like 126.8F (look out Death Valley) and pressures of 270 inHg (makes it hard to stand up).

Seriously, where do these creep in? They show up on my WU page and on MyAcuRite.

Any advice on what these mean and if they can be cleaned from my data is appreciated!

Well, bad data are permanent. That's unfortunate.
