The number of sunspots on the Sun seems to fluctuate in an 11-year cycle. When the sunspot cycle is at its maximum, the Sun is typically covered with sunspots. The last "Solar Max" occurred in 2002.We are currently at the "Solar Minimum"; there are very few sunspots. Strangely, the cycle was expected to start rising a year ago, but the Sun seems to be in an extended calm period. In fact, for over 200 days so far this year, there have been no sunspots at all!You can keep track of the sunspot number and see daily photos of the Sun at spaceweather.com.
The movie Speed was produced/made in the year of 1994.
Since data is incomplete for 2014, we will use the most recent 20-year period of 1994-2013. During this time there were 496 recorded tornadoes in Indiana.

The "11 years" is only approximately; mainly, it is the long-term average. The individual cycles can be quite a bit longer or shorter. It corresponds to the Sun's 22-year magnetic cycle.
Sunspots
No, sunspots are actually most common during the peak of the solar cycle, known as solar maximum. During the solar minimum, sunspots are less frequent and activity on the sun's surface is reduced.
It varies between the years - on an approximate 11 year cycle. It will range from almost zero to 250 sunspots per year. See related link for the numbers counted since 1750.
The greatest number of sunspots during the period from 1700 to 1800 was observed around the year 1778. The peak sunspot activity during this time is known as the "Maunder Maximum," a period of high solar activity.

SunSpots
As strange as it is to think of a body as hot as the sun having such a thing as a "cool" spot, it actually does! These areas are known as sunspots. Their number changes from year to year and they appear darker in color when studied by astronomers.

The number of sunspots on the Sun varies over an 11-year solar cycle. During periods of high solar activity, there can be hundreds of sunspots visible on the Sun's surface. The next peak in sunspot activity is expected around 2025-2026.
The year 1778 saw the greatest number of sunspots during the period from 1700 to 1800.
Sunspots are not permanent features on the Sun. They typically last for days to weeks, and then fade away. The number of sunspots varies in an 11-year cycle known as the solar cycle.
