There's definitely some high level dust or smoke blocking things as we're barely making 3.6kW at close to solar noon.
A look at the weather station shows about 600w/m2 insolation vs about 800w/m2 last week but similar uv levels.
The sun is still high enough to not be the reason and its warm but not baking hot.

max im gettingis 2.8kw from a 3.2 system, but its baking here today and not a single cloud in the sky

I would have no idea what I would be doing or what id need to do to make sure its stable/can support the weight.

We've peaked at just 3.62kW from a 4.8kW system today. Yesterday was similar. Its looking like a perfect day but we'll struggle to hit 25kWh. Very odd.

Sun out all day, no clouds, I am surprised that my highest peak on the solar has not been above 3.2, usually I pretty much completely max out with no cloud cover at some point in the day, although saying that the 1st of September is the first day it was getting up to 3.8-4 on yield on the solax readings after that it has gone up to max 3-3.2, weird.
Currently for the day im on
7.3 Imported
13.3 Exported
17.4 Generation
It has been quite the rollercoaster week lol
Edit
Lemme see if I can clear that up

Ok, thats better

Similar here, just under 3.2 on a 3.8, got some graphs above in spoiler. Quite odd hehe.

Not been here for a while checking up on things but noticed the live ladder https://pvoutput.org/liveteam.jsp?tid=1661 is not working anymore has it changed ?

Works fine for me make sure you have filters off.

Going to finish the day at 40.1, good curve but low peak really due to the heat I guess. Happy with figure though.
Contemplating another 4 panels before winter, max both strings on my inverter at 520v.
Just ticked over 41.

Peaks definitely down from the June highs. It is September after all.

24.3 today. Like others I had a perfect curve today but max peak was slightly low at 3.2 for a 3.6 inverter.

Working for me, I like that ladder as I get to be second even if it is because I've been there a long time
Managed 19.2kWh today and 8+kWh exported for a fine £1.39 profit after the standing charge.

I just ranked that ladder by efficiency, your first and im second….happy with that lolWorking for me, I like that ladder as I get to be second even if it is because I've been there a long time

I suggest getting a nice beefy shed, you need planning for a ground mount array, but don't for a shed
