That has exercised my mind from time to time over the years. This is one of those times. There is not a lot of recent activity on some other sections of the board so the eventual demise of this forum must be a possibility. That is why I have - deliberately or accidentally - made contact with some of you via email. Don't let this go to your heads but this is a very pleasant place to be ...... 97% of the time. Well, if it came to it, something else could be arranged...cycle 24 will soon be an out of date term 🤔 Still nice to see new names becoming familiar over time... Perhaps we should NAME a specific bugout web site where all can meet to build a continuing forum at a new location. If everything goes to hell, that's where we meet and post in the interim.

cycle 25 is a possibility for a new name and has a 15 year life extension also. Why the negativism about the life of the site?
WUWT is rocking along but it also has periods when little is presented that is actually "solid".
JoNova and some others should link up and pull some traffic together and maybe generate some traffic, code for revenue.
As the new solar cycle gets rolling the world will cool a bit nobody really knows how much but it's going to be interesting whatever happens.
Having a world wide spread is in itself a bit interesting also what needs to happen for this to be reinvented or reinvigorated.

I can go through a lot of thermal underwear launderings in that time. May have to move to Florida and watch the ocean deflate ... while the hurricanes blow me back into south Georgia. Beans and cider ... one soft, one hard.

Beans and cider ... one soft, one hard. It could be longer than 5 years before the Sun gets active again Florida has been cooler this winter than normal with several frosts - when I arrived I was told that we were south of 'the frost line' not the case now. But it's a lot warmer than where I am in Maryland at the moment. I was somewhat disappointed to find out that Cider over here was just apple juice - I was used to 'scrumpy' - indeed I may start making my own again.

If it goes longer than 51 months then it will be longer than anything we have in the daily records since 1855. Dalton or Maunder territory. I've counted time (in months) between the cranking up of spotless days till they subside in the beginning of the next cycle. The interim between SC23 and SC24 was 34 months, the fifth highest in the series. The other four were ALL from 1875 to 1914 ... the interims between SC11 to SC15. They scored 44, 52, 45 and 45 months respectively. In comparison, the interval between SC19 and SC20 was only 25. These are rough measures. But a repeat of interval 1886-1891 would be 51 months, and would take us to December, 2021 ... as I am starting the current period in October. We are going to see how "wild" the weather is over this interval. Hope everyone is taking notes. The south is gonna need a lot of plumbers if we get anywhere near a repeat of this (Acid take note ... -10F in Dallas, -2F in Tallahassee): www.sciencefacts.us/1899-when-the-mississippi-river-entirely-froze/ Hopefully the oceans will save us. If you have any good "recipes" for hard cider, please share.

MB Archibald used cycle length as a proxy for solar cycle length. I think he decided it was more objective than counting solar activity.
Is that sort of what you are saying?
About to hit Aspen for a week unfortunately its been cold there but lacks snow its always hard to tell 4 months before the season proper. they have snow making.
Will report back.

"In a World first, Australia’s Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) has declared that the “noise annoyance” caused by wind turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound “is a plausible pathway to disease”.
At the AAT hearing in Adelaide, the impacts of wind farm noise were considered by a senior Federal Court judge; the most thorough medical and scientific inquiry on the subject matter conducted in Australia to date.
The Tribunal’s findings were based on the “established association between noise annoyance and some diseases, including hypertension and cardiovascular disease, possibly mediated in part by disturbed sleep and/or psychological stress/distress”."climatechangedispatch.com/wind-turbine-noise-exposure-proven-a-pathway-to-disease/
