and the unrighteous in equal measure." Otherwise some of us might be in trouble!
Also explains the week ahead for Cardiff, which apart from tomorrow which is grey, then has wall to wall sun (some with white clouds) for 8 days. Hopefully that'll keep gen above the 100% mark for November.
Of course by tomorrow those suns will have been replaced by black clouds and rain. In fact next thurs is now solid sun, but yesterday morning the prediction for it was snow.
Think I might start a weather forecast blog, just get a die, stick different weather symbols on 5 sides, and all weather on the 6th, then roll it each morning.
Anyone who wants a prediction, just let me know. But until I get some stickers, you'll have to put up with an answer of "1 to 6", then make up the forecast for yourself. I may invest in a 20 sided D&D dice for more specific forecasting. HTH.
Today's forecast for Cardiff is "4", I'll let you know if it's right!
Mart.Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.

Here's a forecast I started way back in August, think I can safely say it still applies....oh hang on, better add that the showers could turn wintry over the hills.
