Weather fluctuations across the UK are vast on an average day.
Your turn will come ;-)
I'm hoping for another good one tomorrow :

As a new PV owner, I'm aching for a fully clear day, all day, to get an idea of generation totals and peak.4kWp system (Feb 2014) : 1.5 SW, 2.5 NE (16x Bisol BMO/250, Aurora Power-One UNO PVI-3.6 Inverter : pvoutput.org/list.jsp?id=299350

Yes, I'm the same. Think we got one on Wednesday but need to check the inverter to see the mini graph. Wouldn't surprise me if there were still plenty of dips as clouds went past.
Today looks good - was diverting 0.5kwh into the iBoost as I left and with a baseload around 0.3kwh - that was decent for 7:30am with the sun only just high enough to hit the panels.0 -

Hah! I hope not... but can always trust me to tempt fate
The inner-geek in me wants live web-based reporting so I can check!4kWp system (Feb 2014) : 1.5 SW, 2.5 NE (16x Bisol BMO/250, Aurora Power-One UNO PVI-3.6 Inverter : pvoutput.org/list.jsp?id=299350 -
This is why I decided against paying for any monitoring devices or software - I'd just be checking it all day long!
I was like that to start with. Now I just load the data once a month to website to review, even that may be too much!
Checked panels today and found they are still covered in the Saharan dust, hopefully we'll get some rain soon that will give them a good wash as I'm sure it isn't helping the output being on there.Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.0
