[RE-wrenches] Clearing Snow From Modules

[Drake]

Hi Wrenches,

We have a lot of border line temperatures here that will not quit 
melt the snow off an array. We can lose production on a semi sunny, 
28 degree day. During such a day, I was looking at my frost free 
water faucet and my array. Humm, I could easily hose the snow off.

Is there a reason not to do that? Any ice or slush would not present 
a problem. Is there a danger to the modules from doing that?

Maybe this would even work on a sunny day when the temperatures were 
colder? Could a module break? Anyone ever try this?

Thanks,

Drake
