Got the dinghy painted

Yeah - I've been listening - had a long path QSO with a JA on 30 meters which was a shocker. That's rather unusual. I'm not sure its sunspots though - at least not at this stage of Cycle 24. I think what's happening is that we're seeing some flare activity in the Helium I sphere which created a coronal hole - that would cause an increase in magenetosphere energy here on Earth. As of today, none of the major observatories have seen any sunspot activity at all. In fact, the active/minor/severe potential at mid and high latitudes is at .05/.01/.01 respectively. No spots. :) I was reading today that the solar jet stream is finally moving into position towards the sun's equator - two years or so later than it normally does. That portends increased sunspot activity. How long that lasts though is a question - it may be the last "umph" before it enters another Maunder Minimum as some have speculated. The timing is right. Huh?? ;-) |
