Ambient Weather WS-2090

I have a Ambient Weather WS-2090 connected to MeteoBridge 2.5 (5816) running on TP-LINK TL-MR3020. Ever so often it shows an outside temperature 60.0°C 140.0°F, which it uploads to Weather Underground.

Is there any way currently to set up a filter or any future plans to add filters to prevent bad data from being gathered?

Did you figure this out? I am having the same issue on one after a reset.

My problems is sporadically my PWS registers 140° F. Then it goes back to showing the correct temperature. Meteobridge appears to have some sort of range check on temperature. I would like to be able to change the limit of the high point to something below 140 so it wouldn't push this false 140 to Weather Underground. If this is your problem as well, then no I haven't found or been told a solution to this.

However one time my display unit got stuck on 140 for the current temperature and wouldn't change even if I removed all the batteries and disconnected from the USB cable. If this is your problem then I got a solution from Ambient Weather. If you press and hold the up arrow, it will reset. You will know it resets because all the LCD segments activate then just release the up button. I don't remember how long this takes but it isn't immediate, just keep holding till the LCD segments all show. This clears everything.

Data of >=60°C will be blocked by corresponding weather station drivers with next update.

I have a similar problem with my Ambient Weather WS-1400-IP. I had a reported temperature of 192.4F today.
However, my Weather Underground data bypasses the meteobridge and did not have the bad data, it reported correctly.
If I check Weather Underground my data is consistently good. If I check CWOP I have large gaps of rejected data, around three hours at a time.

What I think is happening is that meteobridge is taking the fahrenheit data and doing an additional fahrenheit to celsius conversion. For example, it was 90 degrees F today and meteobridge converted that it 192.

I'd like to know what triggers this error. And why it wasn't blocked if it was over 60 degrees.
