We're still barely out of the minimum, and the predictions for the next solar max shot it to be weak. In addition to the 11 year sunspot cycle, field strengths are also down across cycles (normally they'd go up and down with the cycle, but they have been trending down regardless of sunspot behavior).

He's a bunch of cool solar data and images in one place:
