It's Don Coxe that claims if we don't have any sunspots in the next six weeks, it will be a 200 year old record.

You can see here where the low of this cycle is likely to be a bit lower than the low of 1810 (Dalton Minimum)...



..but I'd like to see the data that allows Coxe or anyone else to narrow it down to a specific week. Where does Coxe mention this six-weeks-from-now bit? I'm not challenging you or Coxe, I just want to see the data. If it checks out, I've got some bets to set up. :-)

a Dalton minimum event would generate the coldest weather since 1820
