Today is shorter than yesterday, by one minute. We peaked out at 14 hours 50 minutes of daylight and stayed there for about a week. Today the days are officially getting shorter. But it’ll be awhile before that has an effect on temperatures. We’ve been in the high 90’s for a couple weeks, might be getting a ” cool spell” in the high 80’s. High humidity, too. I miss the GSM.
Today’s daylight is longer than yesterday’s daylight.
The effect on temperature will occur in August. That is when the wild animals start molting.
How come the people in the Northern Hemisphere walk around upside down?
I don’t think you’re aware of just how dangerous a true solar minimum really is when taking into account we have a world population of more than 8 billion people.
The world has been in a developing solar minimum since 2002 as shown in the Thermosphere Climate Index
During the current solar maximum the thermosphere reached its highest temperature of 34.31×10 (hot zone) after the second week of September 2024. Prior to the X flare activity that increased after Mother’s Day and remained high until September, the thermosphere remained in the warm zone.
Currently the thermosphere temperature is 20.69×10 which is in the warm zone and it has been falling approximately 1×10 every week to 2 weeks. When the thermosphere is in the lower half of the warm zone the earth losses more heat every day than it receives from the sun and this loss of heat increases the more the thermosphere cools. This leads to the cooling and contraction of the lower atmosphere bring colder air closer to the ground, which increases precipitation whether it is rain or snow.
For the last 4 springs late frost have destroyed apple, pear, cherry and other stone fruit crops in both the southern and northern hemispheres. These late and early frost are increasingly further south or north each successive year world wide. So as we leave Solar Cycle 25 much earlier than predicted expect large area crop damage will continue to increase every year, leading to the point where more and more countries cannot feed themselves, and the major food producing counties are left with ever shrinking supply’s.
In the mid 1990’s I had several conversations with NASA while doing research for several oil company and business executives related to the Mayan Calendar 2012 end date and how to prepare for it. At that time NASA was already expressing concerns over the falling temperatures in the thermosphere and what a Grand Solar Minimum would do to our civilization.
What ever the outcome Deb, you will most probably live through the beginning of this calamity.

It delivers more blood to our brains, which means that we can think better than some other people.
“Global Temperature Metric Is Meaningless”.
Nice summary, Cap. Thanks.
