    Now we're due a frost. At least the apple trees have had the sense not to blossom yet...
    I wish my trees had the same sense....;):eek::rotfl:

    Just seen on the news that vineyards have been trying to warm the air around the vines to prevent frost killing them. Cold that's good for us to generate better amounts isn't so good for others....
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.

    Not as good as reported :mad: Turns out it was error in the way Solaredge was reporting the Monthly total.

    Now likely to go through PVGIS estimate for April later today or tomorrow.

    Noticed this morning that the Monthly Total is now showing the correct figure; matches the graph, etc.
