"Many researchers believe we're are moving into a solar minimum known as a Dalton Minimum (slightly less cool than the Little Ice Age Maunder Minimum)"

It won't save you.

A solar minimum would offset no more than a decade’s worth of human-caused global warming



The global mean temperature difference is shown for the time period 1900 to 2100 for the IPCC A2 emissions scenario. The red line shows predicted temperature change for the current level of solar activity, the blue line shows predicted temperature change for solar activity at the much lower level of the Maunder Minimum, and the black line shows observed temperatures through 2010.

"thru 2010"... altho it looks cold in retrospect, at the time, it was the hottest year ever.

"This could explain all the rain,"
It could explain the drought, too. It's the awesome power of could.

India's 6th largest city just ran out of water

Chennai's 4 main reservoirs are completely dry.

In southern India, the four main water reservoirs for the city of Chennai (once known as Madras) have reportedly run completely dry. Chennai is the sixth largest city in India.

"Only rain can save Chennai from this situation," a Chennai city official told BBC Tamil:

The acute water shortage has forced the city to scramble for urgent solutions, including drilling new boreholes.

Residents have had to stand in line for hours to get water from government tanks, and restaurants have closed due to the lack of water.

(...)

Officials are trying to find alternative sources of water, with the city's water department starting to identify and extract water from quarries.

But the big concern is the dry reservoirs and low groundwater levels.

I can give you a good deal on a ski resort in Miami if you are interested. Should be a great investment.
