My favourite sort of weather; bright, but not too warm

@cn Yup. I love those too. Unfortunately, very few of those these days.

@cn It was a nice day here too. I much prefer Spring and Autumn to the two extreme seasons.

@simonwoods @cn fall and winter are my favourites but I like all seasons except for summer, which can take a long walk off a short pier.

@cn @peterimoore @simonwoods Yup. Although there are longer days hence more sunlight in summer, we also use more power due to the heat in Texas. These nice pleasant and sunny days hit the sweet spot.

@pratik trying to resist pompasetting about PV+battery meaning I’ve been essentially self–powered for nearly a week.

@cn Texas doesn’t let us store it for future use. We have feed it back to the grid. We get credits though.

@pratik they may want to rethink that 🤔

@cn After last week, definitely. The earlier excuse was that if everyone did that, the grid can’t be maintained. I’m like, it’s Texas, everyone is not going solar. They still cling to their conservative beliefs of loving fossil fuels.

@pratik re: near self–sufficiency in electricity">

@pratik well, that went weirdly 🙃
