A Mini Ice Age On The Way?

After hittings the 90's on Monday, a "mini ice age" may be on the way?

Scientist and Astrophysicists have figured out how to track each cycle of the Sun's intensity, through the annual average number of sunspots. The sun has cycles of activity and each of which lasts for about a decade.

By analyzing solar activity cycles dating to the 1970s, a research team led by Northumbria University mathematics professor Valentina Zharkova created a model that claims is 97 percent accurate in predicting the next cycle. The team says that solar activity will drop by some 60 percent in the 2030s. This conceivably could lead to unusually cold weather conditions.

The last time Earth endured a "mini ice age" was from 1645 to 1715. In Europe, rivers and canals froze over and frost-afflicted countries suffered widespread crop failure and famine.

Do I feel a chill in the air?
