April 1st peak of Solar Cycle 24

The website Spaceweather.com reports that April 1st is the peak of the sunspot cycle.

The website says:

"NASA researchers have rescheduled solar maximum.
The peak was due in 2012, but now it's going to happen this month.

"We've launched millions of dollars worth of spacecraft to study solar activity, and what are we getting? Puny little A-flares and feeble old sunspots," complained a high-ranking source at NASA headquarters. "We need some real explosions! Rescheduling Solar Max should solve the problem."

News of the shift was announced on April 1st."
