A Quiet Sun, a Cold Winter
The Old Farmers Almanac is calling for a colder-than-normal
winter. One contributing factor is sunspotsor the lack of
them!
Despite the biggest sunspot of the year, number 1029, that was
in our view just a few days ago, this year and next, sunspot activity
will be very, very light. Whenever this phenomenon has occurred
in the past, the result has been a cooling influence on Earth.
Solar experts believe that the Sun will remain calm for another
year.

Robert B. Thomas, who founded this Almanac in 1792, believed that
weather on Earth was influenced by sunspots and solar radiation.
Sunspots are magnetic storms on the surface of the Sun. To this
day, the Almanac uses three disciplines to predict the weather:
meteorology, climatology, and solar activity. Learn more about
how the sun effects our climate, and how the Farmer's Almanac
forecasts weather here.
