The word prediction pretty much contains it's own disclaimer anyway. I remember reading a NASA article around the time I decided to get a callsign again (This time last year I guess) that said they expect this cycle to be the strongest ever recorded. So somewhere in between

15m has been good for a few months now. 10 meters has been open a number of times to Europe.
Early summer is the sporadic E season so 10 and 6 meters will have elevated activity.
