*From Tony N2MFT:

THE CENTENNIAL GLEISSBERG CYCLE:*You've heard of the 11-year sunspot 
cycle But what about the Centennial Gleissberg Cycle? The Gleissberg 
Cycle isa slow modulation of the solar cycle 
<https://www.climate.gov/media/13201>, which suppresses sunspot numbers 
every 80 to 100 years. It may have been responsible for the remarkable 
weakness ofSolar Cycle 24 
<https://skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-news/the-weakest-solar-cycle-in-100-years/>in 
2012-2013. New research published in the journal/Space Weather/suggests 
that the minimum of the Gleissberg Cycle has just passed. If so, solar 
cycles for the next 50 years could become increasingly intense.Read the
