Solar Minimum Madness: Is Thanksgiving\u2019s Winter Wonderland A Preview Of The Bitterly Cold Winter To Come?<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This week, three major winter storms will batter most of the country with ice, snow and bitterly cold temperatures just in time for Thanksgiving. It is being projected that 55 million Americans will be traveling this week, and so this bizarre weather comes at a very bad time. But of course we have already seen a series of blizzards roar across the nation in recent weeks and hundreds of record cold temperatures have already been shattered and we are still about a month away from the official start of winter. Normally, it isn\u2019t supposed to be this cold or this snowy yet, but we don\u2019t live in \u201cnormal\u201d times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scientists tell us that solar activity becomes very quiet during a \u201csolar minimum\u201d, and when solar activity becomes very quiet we tend to have very cold winters. And in recent months solar activity has been very, very low. In fact, we haven\u2019t seen any sunspots at all \u201csince November 2\u201d<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have not seen any sunspots since November 2, and at that time they were only visible for two days, and prior to that no sunspots since October 2.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Unless things change, and that is not expected to happen, we should prepare for a very cold and very snowy winter. And this upcoming week is likely to be a preview of coming attractions. According to CNN<\/a>, holiday travelers will have three major winter storms to deal with\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Thanksgiving week starts, a record number of travelers will be dealing with three storms nationwide that will add to the holiday stress.<\/p>

One storm will lash the East and will affect travel through Sunday, another one will batter the Midwest <\/a>on Tuesday and a third one will move through the West on Wednesday.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
