Shouldn't Bermuda be a rather humid place? Its always below ~35%. Is that an instrument or a data processing/calibration issue?

Matt checked the sensor and said that he found a little corrosion that he cleaned off from the connector. However, the corrosion may have been the contact grease we use. Regardless, the data looks reasonable now. A spare sensor has been ordered and will be sent to Bermuda.

Yup. Matt checked the sensor and said that he found a little corrosion that he cleaned off from the connector. However, the corrosion may have been the contact grease we use. Regardless, the data looks reasonable now. Instead of sending them a new humidity element, I have decided to send them a complete new sensor as a spare to set on the shelf in case it acts up again.

I submitted a new issue with a ceilometer. I think it would be good to pull Christian into the GitHub system. He will be managing the ceilometers for SURFRAD. I have already fixed the problem, but I will leave it open so that Christian can close it.
