[Do the math]

It's 29° in Lockport LA. I'm predicting a cold winter. The sun is going into a solar minimum. The last time the sun was in this kind of minimum was called the mini ice age. I hope I'm wrong.

I hope that you are right it is a mini Ice Age. Based on previous cycles, we are past due for a real “Ice Age” - the kind with mile-high ice over Seattle. (2 miles thick in Chicago iirc).

BTW - we currently are in an “Ice Age” (being the latest geologic time period there is). But - we are in an “inter-glacial period - so in between the big glaciations.
