Re: Solar Max Double Peaked
Yes,since Jan this year,the showing on the sun had been disappointing.Sunspots are ALL small sizes;
prominences are not high and filaments are no longer long.In fact may not even be a double maximum;like the previous one.Remember that in the previous one and at even the min. between the
maximum,large sunspots occured in cycle within 1 or 2 months.This didnt even show up now!
Actually just hoping that like those ending during the last max;suddenly a large one occured and thats
can compensate for all the effort.Still can remember the one that occupy 1/4 the sun's surface.Thats all it takes.
