Still too fricking cold.

When you have record low sunspots, you get colder periods. Sun trumps anything man does by 10000000.

Never heard of the “Davenport Perihelion” before.

When does the “Chesterfield Aphelion” occur?

It might be a couch but no one ever invited me to have a seat on one.

Lol. KWQC is in Davenport, IA. I lived over 62 years about 30 miles south southwest of there on the IL side. Wife is from Moline (just across from Davenport and Bettendorf.

The city was named for a Colonel Davenport that lived on Arsenal Island out in the Miss. river. Poor guy was murdered in 1845 by robbers.

A magnus annus is ca. 25000 years, no? So were winters in the northern hemisphere much colder 12k years ago?
