Abstract: Of considerable interest to solar energy applications is the sequence of days of “good” or “bad” weather. In this work we study the dependence of the weather on that of the 2 days before, based on sunshine data for a period of 30 years. The results show that this varies considerably during the year and is a function of the daily relative sunshine (DRS). We also present the generation of sequence of k consecutive days during which the DRS is greater or less (“good” or “bad” weather) than a value x(0 < x < 1).
