There is an article for those who may think next solar cycle may not start.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2019/04/11/scientists-predict-new-solar-cycle-is-about-begin-that-it-will-be-stronger-than-last-one/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.fa37abc9e2bf
Although title is very optimistic, take away is that next expected cycle
will be little stronger than SC24, still one of the weakest in modern
history.
I understand, this is collective prediction.
There have been few more predictions lately:
Long paper with prediction on the last page:
https://www.leif.org/research/Prediction-of-SC25.pdf
and prediction by not known to me scientists from India
http://www.cessi.in/solarcycle25prediction/
and the last is prediction with only abstract available:
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2018MNRAS.481.2981S
All three agree that cycle will be little stronger than SC24 and will start
around end 2019-beginning 2020.
Lets see how predictions hold.
