Having no long term experience in SWL personally, would those with a couple
cycle's worth please share their experiences? What can we expect for the
next ~11 years?

Yup. There she blows, bare as a baby's bottom.

- NASA solar physicist David Hathaway explains: "Solar minimum has
arrived." -

So, since that fella said it, I guess its official. This won't stop me
from
enjoying my hobby, but that damn powerline situtation in the backyard
sure
makes it hard.

Happy DX'ing!

This just means that the lower bands will be better than the upper
bands. The international broadcasters change the frequencies they
broadcast on seasonally and yearly based in part on the sun spot count
so it should not affect your listening to a large extent.

They smaller broadcasters are not as flexible though so you might lose
out there during the minimum sun spot years.
