    Bit of a mixed bag the last few days to say the least.

    Over the last 7 days we've generated: 19.0, 19.0, 10.3, 6.6, 20.5, 1.2 (worst since Feb!), 4.7kWh. Today is looking reasonable as we've already clocked up 8.3kWh.

    Excluding today we're on track to beat our PVGIS-Classic September estimate by 27%, in fact we clicked past the target yesterday. Extrapolating the next 6 days we should end up with similar generation to April this year and slightly beat March, August and June's performances.

    A better than expected 4.62kWh today, weather a strange mix of sun and heavyish rain. Have now exceeded PVGIS classic and climate for September (well yesterday actually) so reasonably happy.
