Long time to go here - leaves do not 'turn' in Florida, and fall is around March/April when the old leaves are dumped and replaced with new ones. What about the gators? Don't they turn? I've not noticed a color change....

SEVENTY YEARS AGO THIS WINTER (from the descending flank of SC24) If history provides our winter analogs ... and if those analogs reflect placement within series of solar cycles and upon particular locations within specific solar cycles, then it would seem that a series of closely placed bad winters are due. While a specific number of years may be unimportant, a period of 70 years (give or take) equals 6 solar cycles, two of which take us from the solar downturns of the 1870s to the 1940s to the 2010s. Clusters of severe winters appear to occur on the declining flank of specific cycles near the start of a 6-cycle decline and recovery. Our sample is of course limited. The winters of 2009-10 (big) and 2017-18 (not so big) may have been the opening salvo. We will see what this winter and ... brings. Past Examples Blizzard of 1948-49: The worst winter ever (On the downslope of SC18) www.theindependent.com/news/blizzard-of---the-worst-winter-ever/article_be12dcb9-d5e7-5e3a-9131-af347b848bd4.htmlThis was followed one year later by ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Appalachian_Storm_of_1950The winters of 1946-47 and 1950-51 were the big English winters in this time frame. www.netweather.tv/weather-forecasts/uk/winter/winter-historyRemembering also the North Sea Flood of 1953 (also near solar minimum) - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Sea_flood_of_1953The Great N American Blizzard of 1886 was 73 years before 1949 (on the descending flank of SC12) and it was matched with the winter of 1885-86 in the British Isles. There were several other years in a historically memorable set of winters over 30 years. While SC19 had the highest solar flux during this time period, its geomagnetic strength appears to have been less than SC18. Thus, the winter of 1962-63 (on the descending flank of SC19) could be viewed as a continuing downward trend in the first half of the 20th century grand maximum that peaked during SC18 and bottomed in the 1970s during SC20. howtheatmosphereworks.wordpress.com/ap-index-historical-analysis/

Have I mentioned before that you are worth more than we pay you, Missouri?

Have I mentioned before that you are worth more than we pay you, Missouri? It's the magic of the number "0". When multiplied by any other number still equals itself. But as my mum used to say ... it's the thought that counts? Of course, Mr. Scrooge said the same thing.

Remember, black holes are where God divided by zero.

Ok, so my forecasts are admittedly looking a bit, erm, incorrect.....technically speaking 🤔 So here's someone else's, ECMWF, winter pressure forecast. Judging by the analysis, if you are of a slightly weak disposition, look away now, go make a coffee or something.... www.gavsweathervids.com/flash.html

On the brighter side, plumbers may be a hot commodity this winter. Wonder if this supports Astro's forecast for a late-starting North American winter? NW Europe gets trashed ALL winter and N America gets it late and extending into spring (the season shift)?
