Its what scientists have termed a grand minimum a particularly low point in what is otherwise a steady 11-year cycle. Over this cycle, the Suns tumultuous heart races and rests.
At its high point, the nuclear fusion at the Suns core forces more magnetic loops high into its boiling atmosphere ejecting more ultraviolet radiation and generating sunspots and flares.
When its quiet, the Suns surface goes calm. It ejects less ultraviolet radiation.
Now scientists have scoured the skies and history for evidence of an even greater cycle amid these cycles.

One would have to understand the ways that they might use to find food such as dogs, metal detectors, ground scanners, who knows what else, and be very wise on how to hide it. I wonder how one would hide food, etc. in ways that it couldn’t be found. If push comes to shove people need to use their brains, be very cunning and not act in out of haste and panic. The best thing is to have things planned out and worked out ahead of time.
Yes. The old 7 Ps. Prior Proper Planning Prevents P*$$ Poor Performance. LOL
From “The miniscule variability of the sun has no impact upon the climate” to “The sun’s minor decrease in output will temporarily cool the earth; but, warming will return with a vengeance in sixty years—count on it.”
Due for the big one also!
Fortunately we have an advantage that the cavemen didn't. We know where Florida is and how to get there.......
If you are a polar bear.
Yeah, but too many snowbirds will make Florida tip over.
We also have chain-saws.
We have had a record breaking NINE days of snow in a row in Chicagoland :(
Grand Solar Minimums are periods that are also associated with increased seismic/volcanic activity.
