HMMM: VERY UNUSUAL HAPPENINGS ON THE SUN?!

"The sun may be entering a period of reduced activity that could result in lower temperatures on Earth, according to Japanese researchers. 

Officials of the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan and the Riken research foundation said on April 19 that the activity of sunspots appeared to resemble a 70-year period in the 17th century in which London’s Thames froze over and cherry blossoms bloomed later than usual in Kyoto." 

The researchers also found signs of unusual magnetic changes in the sun. Normally, the sun’s magnetic field flips about once every 11 years. In 2001, the sun’s magnetic north pole, which was in the northern hemisphere, flipped to the south.

While scientists had predicted that the next flip would begin from May 2013, the solar observation satellite Hinode found that the north pole of the sun had started flipping about a year earlier than expected. There was no noticeable change in the south pole.

If that trend continues, the north pole could complete its flip in May 2012 but create a four-pole magnetic structure in the sun, with two new poles created in the vicinity of the equator of our closest star.

EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE POINTING TOWARDS GLOBAL COOLING, NOT WARMING, AND COOLING IS TOIUGHER ON UMANS THAN WARMING.

 MEANWHILE: I WONDER WHAT THE 4-POLE SUN'S EFFECTS WILL BE? ANY GUESSES OUT THERE?
