    If you want 'poor' ,  how about my 345 Wh of generation today ?  For those who can't divide by 4000 in their heads,, result would be 0.086 kWh/kWp.

    Day started with bright sunshine but half an inch or so of snow on panels (I didn't go up & measure it !)  then as snow started melting and generation increased (to 190W max) thick clouds built up

    It's way better than my worst ever !   Also caused by snow but that batch showed no sign of melting for several days hence zero generation.

    Def not FC - more Ebeneezer Scrooge  ;)
