You also demonstrated why I will never live in the North. Short days long cold winter night no thanks y’all can keep that noise. I’ll take 105F all day by the lake drinking a cold one with twinpeaks girls on the boat.
William Carrier should be given sainthood we rock the A.C. At 70 or less in summer those panels are making 80+ kWh per day it was 94 today unseasonably warm it’s 67F inside my bedroom as I type this. I used 42kWh so far today from midnight. my panels made 55kWh today with the last 1000 watts still flowing out of them 30min before sundown. I know people in the PacNW who not only have panels they have solar thermal system for hot water so they do work just not at the level they would in the sunny South.
My mom’s brother settled in Ft. Worth after WW II and we visited them every couple of years. All I remember is cricket invasions where they were two inches deep on the hotel parking lot and unbearable heat and prickly skin.
