    Quite surprised to get a 3 today...now your wondering....is that O's or kWh's. You all, i'm guessing keep a tab on the weather forecast, so first to answer correctly goes to the top of the class :think:

    As you have common sense I rekon O's....smiley-laughing021.gif

    Don't worry, I'm still here (although I did have an afternoon away from my KB).
    4.85kWh generated today. Below average for month but my 'E' value was well over 2 so I'll live with the disappointment.

    Does all that equate to a measly 1.21 O's ...? smiley-confused013.gif

    2.08 O's for me today, not good, but better than some......:rotfl:

    They all seem to have recycled today's (Fri) forecast for tomorrow(Sat) (you'll realise why now of course) and if it still doesn't rain much then I imagine they'll promise it again for Sunday.

    Pretty much as expected !

    Some forecasters suggested we might see a few glimpses of sun this morning; none of them persuaded me to expect 10 kWh by Noon. PM was indeed less sunny but still waiting for the promised rain.

    13.87kWh for the day.

    Metcheck: Thick cloud all day
    Met Office: Heavy rain all morning, cloudy afternon
    BBC: Rain early morning then sunny intervals 9am till dusk

    Window: Very slight drizzle around dawn. Thin cloud but very bright 9am till 3pm duller after that

    I suppose BBC were least bad but none of them were impressive.

    15.11kWh for day

    Talk amongst yourselves this week. I'll be on the Costa del Solent for a few days.
