Today there is a new sunspot! Holy cow! I check it every few days to see what's going on with the sun. I'm not even much of a star gazer or anything, but I found the recent absence of sunspots pretty interesting. I know absolutely NOTHING about sunspots, what they even are or how they are formed. All I know is that this marks the next solar cycle. After watching the movie Sunshine, last night, I'm glad to see the sunspot. lawl...
Update: I did a little digging and it looks like there have been a few other sunspot groups this past year. Not many, but some.
The sun is still a big mystery even to astronomers. There are so many things we take for granted in this world. If it weren't for the sun, we wouldn't be here right now. You can see the latest picture of the sun on the left-hand side column at Spaceweather.com. Now we wait and see if more sunspots continue to develop.
More snow pics to come...

Satire: Global Warming Is Gonna Get Us!
This a little something I made today. Gave me a little chuckle. Click on it to see more detail.
Let's see what the sun looks like today. There are NO sun spots. It has been like this since for a while now and that is why things are cooling down on Earth. The sun goes through natural cycles. Just another amazing thing we take for granted! Previously the sun was in a very high cycle thus we were on a warming trend.
Back in July, NASA was saying it was very very normal for a sun to be this spotless. But now in September it appears that it is becoming a little unusual. To have as many spotless days as we have had (back in sept) you have to go all the way back to 1954.
On September 27, we were at 200 days without spots. That would mean we are now at 280 days of a spotless sun. After some digging I found out that the last time we have been 250+ days without sunspots, was back in 1912. We are rapidly approaching the record from back in 1913.
Only need another 45 days or so.
The neo, globalists are now changing the terms. It used to be global warming, but now they just say climate change. This is no mistake! All of these trends have nothing to do with SUV's and CO2 (breathing) and everything to with taxing us further to get us into a 1 world global government.
