@Oldman2 Victron is forecasting 45 for tomorrow, and the weather forecast is for clouds and sun, so may be back on the up tomorrow.

Well it's midday and I've made 8.6kWh so far, although we did just have a peak of 8.8kW of power as well and it does appear to be brightening up, it'll probably go cloudy again though

@Oldman2 Tomorrows forecast has dropped a bit to 38.8 and the weather forecast is not looking too bad.

Came across this earlier, we're in eighth place, Isle of Wight is in first place, no wonder @john_smith does so well.

I often look at the cloud radar, and the clouds just seem to melt away as they pass over the Isle of Wight, similar to what often happens here, but seems to work better down there.
We had a prediction of around 40, and ended up with 49.49 kWh, and 44.158 exported.
Tomorrow's forecast is for 30.

We've generated 41.34 and exported 31.1.
It would have been more, but I turned off the garage PV at 5pm as I'm making alterations, still out there working - hopefully the PV voltage should have dropped by now so that I can safely work on the PV cables.

Making room for two more MPPT solar charge controllers.
Just finished wiring the existing garage panels into my new PV combiner boxes. Still had about 90v at 21:30.

Going to be a bad day here, the weathers very poor, and I got one garage array back online at 12:30, just about to connect the other one back up.
Currently 8.1 kWh generated and the battery is currently at 78% and discharging.

Made 23.31 and exported 15, thought it would be worse than that as I didn't get the garage arrays back on until 12:30 and 14:15.
Did better than expected, 30.87 generated and 20 exported, next six days look bleak.
7.1 here, and I'm in second place on the live charts, thats how bad it is.

We've had a late afternoon spurt and slipped into first place on the live charts 
Terrible day, 17.33 generated and 14.689 exported.
Battery only got to 95% SOC today.
This is the effect the clouds had, with the diffused light, the blue and red traces are the garage panels and face opposite directions, yet until the sun came about 17:15 they both generated the same, top trace is the 4kW SolarEdge array.
Be nice when I've got five traces on this graph

Certainly is!
Better down here today, 42.06 generated and 36.4 exported.
Tomorrows forecast for 23.6

Same here, woke up cold this morning, even though I had a blanket on, bedroom felt really cold as we had the windows open, odd thing is the room thermostat said 18c. Even got a jumper on today, in July!!!!
Generated 9.2 so far.

At the current daily average we won't reach 1000 kWh for the month.

You've got to do, what you've got to do 
I'll forgive you, I don't expect they generate a huge amount over winter.
