The last solar maximum was in 1989.
Solar events can interact and interfere with each other, creating a very complex system.
Their frequency varies with time. The smaller flares tend to follow the eleven year cycle and peak at several tens of flares per day. The largest flares usually occur only a few times during solar maximum. Sunspots increase with solar maximum, and are relatively rare during solar quiet times. Coronal holes do not last as long during solar maximum.
