    Hope the rest of the country had a better day than here!

    0.74 O's

    Most of that must have come from 15 minutes of Sun. Need the next 30 days to produce a better effort than today. Need to average over 3 O's a day to make estimate!

    Hi all

    Last month ended up as the best total for a February so far, but on a kWh/day basis, due to the additional day, it just slips into second place ....

    Running up against March monthly expectation, at least one day later in the month will need to be pretty much above average to compensate for today ....
