Default Solar Panel gets cabin fever?

It looks like the blizzard still has another 10 or 12 hours to go,
but one of the 200W panels is ready for some sunshine..?.



I'll have to run some diagnostics on it, when the winter is over (April or May).

Hurt my back just before xmas.. Going to completely destroy it this week..


Happy New Year,
Rich

I think it's due to the very dry snow and the wind..
About an hour after I took the picture, I was out cleaning off the deck
and looked over at the fixed array.. The rouge panel was covered again..
But, the three 200W panels on the left side were bare! Weird!

I think that for you, it could be better if you keep them under some cover and not under snow :/
