Winters Rerturn
well winter returns with polar vortex 3 but one thing that is not in the cold air and snow's favor is the higher sun angle and that increases the heat that the earth gets from the sun however the earth is really dependent on the unltra violet radation and the infrared or heat radiation that we get from the sun durring increased solar actvity and we are entering a solar Minimum a period of time of decressed solar out put that means the summers would be not as hot and the winters colder and longer because the earth is not getting enough solar energy from the sun the Mini Ice age occured from 1645 to 1715 in the middle of the 100 year cicle the maunder minimum where sunspots nearly droped to zero and that had a adverse effect on the weather and climates of earth,
i am writing this because there is a indication that we are going into a Minimum cycle now sun spots are on the decrease last years max was weak at best and well you know waht happens from there if it goes on we will enter what some have called the Modern Minimum thats for modern times the Modern Maximum has occured now for the decrease for the Modern Minimum and such is the effects it should take a while for the sun spots to drop off radicaly but that is already under way i mean since early 2001 its been on the decline according to star charts and sunspot maps

Where i work
I am a Meteorologist at the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Olney Md there are several office buildings in the complex the NWS Olney is the Farthest most one in the complex there are the NWS Mid Atlantic Forecast Center or MAFC the NASA NGSS Mission control Office/Flight room is another building in the complex all things NGSS are run out of that office even flight operations The Atlantic Hurricane Forecast Center The AHFC the NWS Climate Forecast And Data Center and the NWS's Mid Atlantic and North East Storms prediction center that forecasts severe weather for the North East and Mid Atlantic area the other non NOAA/NWS office in the complex is the National Criminal Ivestigative Service Head Quarters or NCIS
Its a rather large complex many buildings it was recently completed away from Down town to allow for working and other things weather and Nasa. NASA is thinking of Dedicating the NGSS or Next Generation Space Shuttle to purely Weather missions and resupply to the space station the launch pads at kennedy space center have been adapted for the SLS or Space Launch System the pad complex is beeing built on the eastern shore with a long landing runway it will be controled from Flight control here in Rockville while SLS missions will be controled from Houston Texas that is what Nasa is doing I am also a trained Astronaut i am going to fly the NGSS and NASA Nasa is going to call that The Middle Atlantic Space Center they havent picked a name for it maybe the WIlliam Jefferson Clinton Space Center and training complex its a increase in budget that My brother was able to procure for Nasa To fund the construction of the new complex and space center it will be just East of Salisbury maryland so the shuttle drops is boosters in the ocean not over the coast line of the USA. of course NASA Wallops Island will be still used its just a NGSS launch complex its going to be completed soon and New Next Generation of Astronauts is beeing trained on the NGSS simulator and other things at Houston Texas so yeah beside a Extreme Weather Cat i am an Astronaut.
something about me i guess
