This is a
tipping point! We have reached peak minimum! It's all uphill after this.

The solar flare activity has been low for the last several months for the most part.

“The energy mechanism that creates a solar prominence is still a topic of research.”
That is not reassuring.

What a crock of alarmist crap. The likelihood is that the next maxima will be on the order of what have been levels of activity noted in previous MINIMA.
Observations strongly suggest that the sun is going through a quiet period that may last decades and result in lower than normal temperatures only moderated by a 500 year periodic close orbit of the sun and earth.

On the upside of this, I’m an amateur (”ham”) radio operator and propagation for our radio signals during a solar minimum sucks. For us, the more sun spots we see, the better we can communicate across the world.

Jimmy prefers to call them "proboscises" or "schnozolas."

"Be a good time to land there."
But only at night, or it would still be too hot.

What will AOC require we do about this?

"Climate change deniers often hail this cooling as evidence that the heating of our world is about to go into reverse.
No, there is NO SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE that man is causing ANY "heating" of the climate.
The Scientific Method never invokes "consensus" or unproven models.
