While temps are dropping, as they always do at this time of year, I'm wondering about the readings being posted here. The drop from 70 to 61 was too fast, too soon.

I have a probe off my dock that typically tracks the Winni temps within a degree to two. It's 3' down, under the dock, in the shade. When the 61 degree post was made last week, I was still getting over 70 on the warm sunny days.

Right now I am reading 64 degrees on mine. Is it possible the Lakeport device is defective?
