It appears to me it is. Please show me some evidence to the contrary if you have any? Thanks!

This weekend I went fishing. Riding a few miles up the river at dusk, I was amazed that I was chilly, almost cold. August 14 in Oklahoma.
I am having the strangest feelings that something is genuinely changing. Almost not quantifiable, but very real.

I think we are going to have a long cold winter. On a recent trip from Texas to Nebraska we saw two flocks of geese headed south in August...I don't think I have ever seen them this early. I am wondering about this idea the solar system is leaving a warmer cloud for a cooler cloud. If the sun has to maintain a constant range of temperatures, this cooler cloud would serve as a dampener of solar spot activity while simultaneously perhaps make the sun produce more CMEs as the sun's engine tried to ramp up production to stay constant in a colder cloud. Basically the idea of a ball of gas in a warm room vs. a ball of gas in a cool room. Take this a step further...if the earth has it's own system of maintaining conditions...maybe the ramp up in ocean temps is a result of this dampening affect on the sun. I am a compete novice. Just uninformed speculation while I watch the squirrels in my backyard hard at work preparing for winter in Texas...another reason I am worried...

brokenheadphonez, I am a little self-conscious here, one of the reasons I have been a long time lurker. I am not a scientist, more of a philosopher and absent minded at that...so did I say something stupid to make you sad, or does the thought of a long winter make you sad? To be clear, I am making no claims of originality for anything I posted...just taking everything I have been reading about and trying to put it together in my own mind to make sense of things. Add to that a little bit of anecdotal personal observations. All this research on cosmic clouds I find intriguing...I think the real future of understanding our little solar system lies in the bigger picture of our migration through the galaxy.
