A space weather forecast model is even more useless than for weather forecasting. NASA scientists have used the same reckless abandon in declaring that man induced global warming is occurring. It appears that cycle 24 will be the "smallest" not largest in many cycles. We are currently in a multidecadal oscillation that features ever smaller sunspot cycles. Cycle 23 was pretty dismal for DX on 15, 12 and 10 meters, compared to previous cycle peaks. Cycle 24 will be as bad or worse. Cycle 23 will bottom out sometime in 2007. If you check the solar flux numbers they are still running in the 70's. When they consistently run in the mid 60's then we are at the bottom of cycle 23.

She says the new solar seismic data from SOHO has enabled better long term sunspot prediction than ever before. A 40 year cycle of flow effects the sun's magnetic material.
