Topband: Maunder minimum solar cycle in 2030?

[Bill Tippett]

Hi Frank,

Please correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the conveyor belt theory was
used to predict the weakness of the current cycle.  Hathaway himself did
not predict this weakness:

"NASA's Hathaway, along with colleague Robert Wilson at a meeting of the
American Geophysical Union in San Francisco last month, said that Solar
Cycle 24 "looks like it's going to be one of the most intense cycles since
record-keeping began almost 400 years ago."
