No graph, but I noticed production lessened as well here in Louisisana, where we had about 40% max coverage of the sun by the moon. Pretty cool to watch through my welding hood. Looking out over our property, everything had a slight yellow tint to it. My wife and I watched the eclipse for a while, as we'll almost certainly never see another.

Down in Baja we had a partial eclipse. The decreased insolation was visible. Kind of like when smoke from a fire obscures the sun. I have a 2100 watt array and would usually be getting about 900 watts at that time of day. I looked at my controller and was getting just over 250 watts.

April 2024 Total Eclipse will be even better for your area. The media likes to play up that once in a lifetime.

What's in a title?
No eclipse for me yesterday, made a whopping 1.1kwh from ~9kw of arrays....
PA should be a good spot for the 2024 eclipse pending weather.
That great ball of fire did give me this around an hour ago along with 24.2kwh today.
