If we decide to fix these data, we will need the following coefficients:

P.S. There now is a version of fixSHT.qq in the CABL/ISFF/R directory that implements this fix, though we now how to figure out how to apply this fix in our data flow.  One possibility is to bundle it with the wind-direction computing script to write to both high-rate and 5-min NetCDF files.

Ultimately, of course, the solution is to fix the sensor/microprocessor.  This is an intermittent problem that has affected at least 2 different sensors.  Since it is a bit slip, it likely is an issue communicating between the PIC and the SHT.  Thus, it appears that either the PIC, SHT, or the interface circuit is marginal in some aspect.  Is the timing too fast?  Is a pull-up resistor needed?  Is some timing wait state needed?
