Interesting article at NASA's Spaceweather:
A Perfect Storm of Cosmic Rays
Ten years ago, NASA reported a “perfect storm of cosmic rays.” During the year 2009, radiation peppering Earth from deep space reached a 50-year high, registering levels never before seen during the Space Age.
It’s about to happen again.
Ground-based neutron monitors and high-altitude cosmic ray balloons are registering a new increase in cosmic rays. The Oulu neutron monitor in Finland, which has been making measurements since 1964, reports levels in April 2019 only percentage points below the Space Age maximum of 2009:
Much more at the site. Another indication that our suns output is unusually low. Quiet sun = global cooling.
Here is the website for the Oulu Cosmic Ray Station
UPDATE - a perfect example of Quiet sun = global cooling. From the Detroit Free Press:
Snow expected in metro Detroit this weekend. We give up.
Enjoy the warm, dry weather this afternoon, because it's about to change.
Rain – possibly even snow – is expected to start tonight and last into next week, according to the National Weather Service in White Lake. Minor flooding is possible, the agency said.
Showers are expected to start Thursday after 5 p.m., becoming heavy at times, and last into Friday.
Rain and light snow is expected for Saturday night.
What catastrophic warming?
