    Have you been to the station to clean the sensor lately?  Also, I’d recommend replacing the logger’s battery with a fully-charged one.  Sometimes when those battery packs are starting to fail (from corrosion on the terminals under the plastic wrapper) they will generate noise which can sometimes affect the sensor readings.
