    Another Hawaii at 5.8 O yesterday. Hpwever there's thick cloud, rain and fog at the moment so I'm not expecting that to be repeated today.

    Projecting 114% for the month (already 108% in the bag), but rain all day today will bring the total down a bit, with an average looking day tomorrow to close out the month.
    Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.
