A coronal mass ejection (CME) plays a part, but it's <i>sunspot activity</i> that determines just how"rough" (a non-scientific term...) the weather is going to become. The "Solar Weather" is what drives OURS. The sun has been very quiescent for over two to three years now, a Solar Minimum Activity, of which our good weather predictors at Poor Richard's Almanac have been using to (accurately!) predict the weather for some time now. No, as far as I know Ben didn't examine the Sun when he was writing the first volumes, but somehow he had a very good track record. Don't ask me how. I remember the alarmists in the 70's saying "burn, baby, burn!", and they weren't talking about political events, they were saying we had to pour heat into our atmosphere to keep the Coming Ice Age away. Matter-of-fact, wasn't one of the Obamanation's czar's one if the idiots doing the screaming? I believe in Global Climate Change. Every year. Like clockwork.
