Our sun has been behaving very strangely, and this unusual behavior is really starting to affect our weather patterns. There have been virtually no sunspots in 2018 as solar activity has dropped to alarmingly low levels. As a result, our atmosphere has been cooling and shrinking, and experts are warning that we are heading for a bitterly, bitterly cold winter. And even though the official start of winter is well over a month away, winter weather is already sweeping the nation. As you will see below, a giant winter storm is about to slam into the east coast, but what is happening in Texas is even more unnerving. On Wednesday morning, the temperature in San Antonio plummeted to just 23 degrees, and that absolutely shattered the old record
This shatters the old record low of 28 degrees set back in 1916, the National Weather Service tweeted of Wednesdays weather. Tuesday night just before midnight, the city hit 28 degrees, breaking the previous record of 29 set in 1907, records show.
Typically, November temperatures are significantly warmer. The average high for the month is about 71 degrees and the normal low is 51 degrees. San Antonios average low this year has been comparable to other years, but its average high, a cool 66.6 degrees, has been lower than normal.

As Bastardi says ‘NOAA just can’t find cold’
Congratulations for not following in Mom’s footsteps. That’s a big accomplishment.
She always wonders why this acorn fell so far from the tree, but its only by God’s grace that I did.
Get with the times, dude! Nobody uses the phrase "global warming" anymore. The keyword now is "climate change". ;o)
You beat me to it!!! I was thinking the same thing. Loved the 70s. This is great. Now Blondie needs to come back.
Yep. I was also NASA (JSC) and we knew that significant man made climate change was a fraud. Saw the close to the same percentage temp changes on Mars along with solar cycles. NASA knows it but the scientists and leadership had to fall in line for funding. We are likely heading into a mini ice age... which is far worse than global warming.

Actually our sun has been behaving by past historical history. If history is correct we will have many winters of extreme cold. This may be a Marauder minimum of just one hundred years or may in fact be the beginning of a new ice age.
Geological speaking we are in an ice age and perhaps be in a brief warming period in a glacial age. This has happened many times in the past. Geological speaking by definition we are in an ice age as the polar caps have not melted.
I am a man of science and it abhors me to see science become political garbage. I well remember my research in clay chemistry. I had a brilliant concept and spent untold hours with an x ray diffraction machine to prove my concept.
I was wrong. My concept was wrong. Oddly I did discover something else unique about cat-ion base exchange and hydrated layers of montmorillimate clay. I did not not publish as I just wanted out of school and back to the oil field to make money.
Another grad not even in my university repeated my discovery and did publish. He deserves full credit.
Temps in Atlanta tonight are 15 degrees below normal. We had two weeks of fall then winter.
Second consecutive morning in the 30’s on the MS Gulf Coast - last week we were using A/C (except for one day)....
Thanks. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next 3-5 years.
BOL! Each one considers themselves to be our sun!
Thanks for the ping. This is a good article.
It will be interesting to see what happens in the next 3-5 years. The evidence for cooling continues to accumulate.
Minnesotans for Global Warming!
The survey crew went through the county and had bad news for the farmer.
“Mr. Johnson? I’m not sure how to tell you this, but your property line is all wrong, half of your place is in Minnesota, and the other half is in Iowa!”
“So that must mean the house is still in Iowa?”
“Uhm, the map... yes, it is.”
“Well thank goodness. Minnesota is too cold to live in!”
Heh - I use to say the same thing. I couldn’t believe how many people would agree. “Oh I know - we just have to do SOMETHING!”
If you look at the ice core temperatures, it wouldn’t surprise me if this is the start of a full-blown, mile-high ice over Chicago start of the next ice sheet. At least based on lengths of previous warm periods.
*Note - past results do not guarantee future results.
One super volcano blows and the planet slips imto a maunder minimum, perhaps dropping into an ice age.
I’ve read warmest stuff where they’ll say things like “If not for Mt. Saint Helens and Pinatubo the warming models would have been correct.” I’m guessing the same will be said for the low sunspot count.
