Our Sun Has Entered a New Cycle, And It Could Be One of The Strongest Ever Recorded

Does not fit the global warming religion so you have to dig deep to find the studies.

Your post was spot on. Keep it up.

Within the last hour, the sun facing Earth looked this...

Anyone interested in what the sun is doing should check out SolarHam. Very cool site.

Back when ham radio was mostly HF, this mattered to people going for DXCC and such, more sunspots meant better QRP transmission.

See post 43 above.

There could be glaciers in Miami and there would still be people preaching about global warming.

The issue is never the issue; the issue is always the revolution.

It is interesting that the graph at the link you provided shows a dip near the center of the previous two sun spot peaks.

Science is dead.

NASA and NOAA are still saying that this will be a weak solar maximum.

It is clothing that is bad bad bad. With the global warming if we quit wearing clothes the pollution and carbon that clothing makes wil lbe greatly lowerd and save us.

Aren’t there supposed to be little black spots?

‘WTF?

“Scientists” have been saying the Sun has entered a Grand Solar Minimum, to last 50 years, with global cooling probable.

Now this?

Eggs bad! Eggs good! Eggs bad!
Coffee good! Coffee bad! Coffee good!
Masks on! Masks off! Masks on!

Highly educated idiots have run amuck. Including coders.’

This being actual, testable science, we’ll know the answer soon enough. That’s in contrast to the more difficult questions of AGW or whether cloth masks are anything more than a poor fashion choice...

I’ve been thinking this cycle would be very weak based on the “Layman’s Sunspot Count”, which at a minimum made interesting points on how sunspots are counted today versus at the beginning of the record (15th century).

Looks like that site is down, perhaps gone for good.

At any rate, it should be interesting!

Even during a solar minimum you are still going to have some sunspots possible and a CME ejections are possible. In 2018-19-20 we have went over 200 days without a sun spot.

"This is in direct contradiction to the official solar weather forecast"

This simply cannot be! Solar activity has a direct effect on Global Warming. (Our only source of warmth is the sun.) The science of Global Warming is absolutely SETTLED. There simply can be no controversy.
