Question

Write a short note on the Stevenson screen explaining how it helps to get

the accurate temperature reading.

It is designed to allow air to circulate freely around the instruments, while at the same time shielding them from precipitation and other forms of weather. This helps to ensure that the temperature readings obtained are as accurate as possible, by minimizing the effects of external factors that could otherwise distort the measurements.
