I am willing to bet it was a combination of Cloud Effect, and your shiny slide and cooler air.
Yes, more Sun = more watts output.
The combined effects could have increased the watts by 15%.
300 watts = 270 watts x 1.15
The Cloud Effect is random, but the reflection from the shiny slide should happen every day ( when the sun is at the correct angle seasonally )
The 270 Watt STC Rating occurs at a specific amount of insolation & temperature, it NOT a panel maximum watts output rating.
That is why the output watts rating of your PV Panel varies, as shown below ...
270 Watts = STC
201 Watts = NOTC
That is a huge variance.
The Panel Voltage and the Panel Amps will vary with insolation and temperature.
Generally the power output will be lower than 270 Watts, but sometimes, it will be higher - ain't no big deal.
