If you could not have enjoyed the last 20 yrs of the Modern Warming, the next 30 yrs of the Grand Solar Minimum are going to absolutely suck for you. I am pretty sure we are going to call it Zharkova Minimum, after the Ukrainian born scientist who predicted it spot on. I got my own name for the next decade though, a period called - Fin de Imbeciles.

more than 50 flood warnings still in place in northern England and the midlands, and take a look at Australia wildfires where they are having to use a lot of water
which is pretty bad because of the drought with very little rain of late ,(its like a tinderbox just burning),

"I basically just made it up". Hickey Shtick Micheal Mann mea culpa is next? We are only 1 deg C drop in global temps from it. Come on climate, I can't wait.
