Generation finished for the day and that was my worst ever February by a large margin, nearly 40% under PVGIS. Extra day didn't help at all!

Just submitted my solar reading for the FIT and added it to my spreadsheet where I log it.
359 kwh for December 2023 to February 2024. This was my lowest generation quarter since I had my panels installed in 2014. The nearest being 395kwh for the same quarter in 20/21.
Anyone else seen similar? Was the weather just awful the past 3 months?
