Yep, special day here too, first Hawaii of the year albeit 5.01 O's and bursting beyond pvgis for the month. Oh, and a good day for wind also with Graig Fatha generating 2.24 O's or whatever they might be called. That's if I'm allowed to mention it on here?

I was away last night so I've got two days to report.27.07kWh, 9.95 O's
I'm going to claim one Wink and one Hawai'i!
Yes, I'm happy to see some mention of Graig Fatha here, unless you think a separate thread would be worthwhile? (I'm assuming all members get the same number of O's, so one member's report is all that is needed?)Coastalwatch said:Yep, special day here too, first Hawaii of the year albeit 5.01 O's and bursting beyond pvgis for the month.

With wind speeds varying through the year then, as with monthly pvgis, not only a daily figure but also a comparison of current verses the average of years passed might not go amiss occasionaly. Not that I'll know where to find them.Anyway, for now PV 4.1 O's, Graig Fatha 1.3.While the week ahead looks promising for PV, wind speeds tail off dramatically!
