Climate restoration. Sheesh. Try to keep up. We know it ain’t easy. Expecting some snow tonight and tomorrow where we are.
Thanks, but the only Dr. Casey I watch is Dr. Ben Casey.
Dr Casey suffered a stroke last August. Good man. Keep him in your prayers. He was trying to get the word out.
He has a BS in math and physics plus a masters degree in management.
You should not put to much into what he says because his theory is that sunspots cause earthquakes.
OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the suns planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?
I think it is very possible the present dearth of solar activity may be consequential. As a ham radio operator I have followed solar activity for decades as it has a great effect on radio propagation, but also I have observed recent weather changes which are cause for some concern. In the past seven years here in the Chihuahua Desert we have had record single day snowfall broken twice, record yearlong snowfall total broken twice, and the first blizzard ever in recorded history. During the same time our annual rainfall and average temperatures have trended below average. On the plus side I thing there have been fewer tornadoes in the area immediately east of the Rockies, the storms tend to move farther east before they gain sufficient strength. But ask them at my other home on on the west coast what they think about having tornadoes where they never had them before, or back to back hundred year floods and things of that nature.
Not just a solar minimum, but likely a grand minimum this time. A low low. Possibly 50 years of cooler weather.

A Maunder Minimum could occur, too...
