Against Fort Worth

The nearest of the six largest modeled places is Fort Worth, 88 km to the northeast, at 1,535 kWh per kW. Walnut Springs models 17 kWh per kW (1.1%) above it. Walnut Springs lies 0.72 degrees of latitude south of Fort Worth, and the sun stands higher in the sky the further south you go, which matches its higher modeled output. The two weather stations sit a similar distance from their points (1.5 km and 1.5 km), so station distance does little to explain the gap, and the weather record does the rest.

The second-nearest large place is Dallas, 123 km northeast, where the same model gives 1,500 kWh per kW, so Walnut Springs runs 52 above that figure. Against the Texas median place month by month, Walnut Springs runs at least 2% higher in January, March, April, May, August, September, December.
