Low sunspots and ice ages correlate. Sunspot
activity has been very low the last 2 or 3 years.
See Maunder minimum, Dalton minimum
and little ice age in a google search.

It looks like the smoke is going down. How can that be?The picture is "sideways". That ain't no smoke either....

I believe several Earths could fit right in the pocket of that “wave”, too. The enormity of this monster flare is difficult to comprehend.
To: Myrddin
Yes, I'm excited about the returning warmth! Been a cool spell in Minnesota but
finally solar cycle 25 is heating up.
What I tell my students is that Al Gore thinks it's more about the S-U-V than the S-U-N but he might be wrong - wait and see.

Still only an M-class and not likely to hit us with a CME.

Greenpeace is rushing to the North Pole to put the tinfoil hats on the Polar Bears before their iceburgs melt from the cosmic rays!
Meanwhile the Polar Bears are swimming to get to the floating docks at the base of each oil well for shelter!
Ah, wait a minute——

Interesting that they’ve been exaggerating solar flares recently. We’re not likely to see any unusual effect on earth from that.

It’s just like Nuclear power, we harness the power of the
atom(1945) to generate STEAM (1700) to make electricity(1800).

... to make heat (4000BC), so we can cook our food (4001BC).

Yep I am starting to lump these solar flare fear mongers with the Global warming nitwits.
