"This solar hibernation corresponded with a period of bitter cold that began around 1650 and lasted, with intermittent spikes of warming, until 1715. Frigid winters and cold summers during that period led to massive crop failures, famine and death in Northern Europe."
IIRC correctly, during the climatology portion of my meteorology classes, there was a strong warming trend just prior to that long lived cold snap that started around 1650.
