Dan,

My assumption is that sun is at a greater angle and must therefore penetrate more atmosphere thus producing less energy per sqft with the sun perpendicular to the panel.   

You are right in saying that solar panels are more efficient in the cooler weather so it might be a wash, I don't know for sure.    I will test this as summer rolls around.

Jim,

Guess  I  don't get it.  All things being equal, with only temperature as a variable , solar output is greater when temperature is colder. So what is the basis that your output might be greater in summer?  Just wondering.
