Thinking back, my readings were at the upper limit of the elevation range and we didn't really get full sun for long on the days that I was measuring. Basking temps could very well rise high but not for long I would imagine. Maybe on a good day.



I think my readings were accurate but they were a generally taken in overcast which seems common for the area.



Interesting climate data for Boquete, Panama:

My readings were a few hundred metres above this elevation.
