Solution: Each temperature sensor is manufactured to be accurate to within 1 degree plus or minus and under normal conditions; so two sensors could be as much as 2 degrees different. However, the difference can be exaggerated further because the sensors are designed for different working environments. The indoor sensor is less responsive to ambient air currents because of the shielding effect of the display's case. In addition, the case can act as a heat sink to absorb and store heat
