    Back after four more days away and the scores on the doors are:
    24.24kWh, 8.91 O's. An average of 6.06kWh/day, 2.23 O's/day.
    Not great but as we've not been here to use any electricity I can't really complain.
    I need another 100kWh to match PVGIS for the month, which isn't looking particularly likely ...

    Poor gen here continues, and month end projection now at 97%. But the weather for the rest of August looks to be quite promising.

    Hiya mate. Scored 13kWh ESE and 8.5kWh WNW v's targets of 11 & 5, so a small improvement but still projecting 97%.

    Weather prediction for rest of August looks in line with those figures, nothing great, but slightly above target ..... of course, we all know what happens when I suggest the weather will be good, cue tornadoes and tropical storms.  :#
