Sounds like you've got it in direct sunlight - that's a no-no.

Your best option, if you have the space is a Stevenson Screen - which is 
what the correct housing is called.
Googling that name will give you all kinds of info - including lots of 
D-I-Y plans.

The sensor's got to be out of direct sun and wind, and the Stevenson 
Screen is ideal for this.

Myself, I've gotten away with mounting the sensor under an eave, on the 
south side of a building, sheltered from sun and wind.
That's gotten me very close tracking to "official" temperatures.
YMMV.
