Error meaning air temp vs. reading wherever the sensor sits

Default It will be most accurate when the car is moving...

If it sits in the sun it will show higher than actual.

Default Only when it blows from the East.

Although I spent the better part of two years there for work and nothing is quite like the sludge concentration building or those grit tanks up close!

Default I work over in Countryside...I love taking Lagrange rd south

over the Wonderbread plant, getting the wonderful smell of fresh baked bread.....then as you inhale at full force to get the aroma of the bread...you drive over the river and **** ( I mean ship) canal and just about throw up from the stench...lol
