[CQ-Contest] Sad prop forecast for the next few years

[Vytenis Sciucka]

Predicted values are based on the consensus of the Solar Cycle 24
Prediction Panel

I feel that this prediction was made with focus on Cycle 24.
For cycle 25 there are other predictions which are more or less better:
One of the gurus in solarcycle predictions David Hathaway said:

*We predict that SC25 will be about slightly smaller (∼95%) the strength of
SC24, making it the weakest solar cycle in the last hundred years. We also
predict that,like SC24, SC25 will be preceded by a long extended solar
minimum. *

Another guru Leif Svalgaard says:


*SC25 will be somewhere between SC24 and SC20, provided the lPolar Field
Precursor Relationship holds*

SSN(24)=116; SSN(20)=152. You can find his prognosis at the end of this 18

And third prognosis is made by not known to me indian scientists Dibyendu
Nandi  and Prantika Bhowmik  http://www.cessi.in/solarcycle25prediction/ it
also does not sound very bad.
