Abbott as an eminent heliologist claiming the sun emits 3 to 4 percent less heat than 15 months ago, suggesting this may explain the recent strange winter and forecast a cool summer and heavy next winter. It notes local distrust of long-range forecasts and compares historical temperature ranges across years 1919 to 1922.

Laredo Bermuda Onions Seen As Smallest Crop In Years
The Laredo Bermuda onion harvest this season proved the smallest in the industry’s history due to cold snaps and rain followed by severe weather. Shipments have fallen to a fraction of prior years with about 60 carloads total sent, and fewer than 50 more expected. The crop faced insect pests and weather damage, reducing yield by roughly 45 to 50 percent. The onion market remains in demand in major U.S. cities despite the shrinkage.
