Create a record sheet to store data with the following specifications: Weather conditions External Air temperature Internal Air temperature Insert the the loose part of the cable that is outside of the house into the thermometer and record the internal temperature which is labeled as the outer air temperature as the thermometer is connected to the white cable which is inside the house, therefore it is the internal temperature being measured, this would be the same throughout each house. Record the outer temperature which is labeled as the internal air temperature because the actual thermometer reads itself as it being the internal air temperature but in this situation it is outside therefore its measures the outer air temperature. Reset the thermometer after every house as this would keep the data new and untampered. Follow the plan and measure five days a week to maintain consistancy. Measure the data every morning at 08:00 and afternoon at 13:00.

If this occurred around the time that the hourglass indicated an hour had passed, I had to wait a few minutes for the clouds to move so that I could see the shadow. Thus, some hours on the sundial may appear to be longer or shorter than others. Another major weatherly hindrance that I have thus far observed is the rain.
