Yesterday it was bright and sunny here in Cornwall although cold, about 3°C. I was pulling about 2kW from the solar panels at midday, even thought the Sun is very low in the sky.

Today we have dense cloud, very grey and dark, such that you have to have the lights on in the daytime. It's 4°C outside and the panels are barely active, less than 100 watts.

Roll on summer.
