Comment: “… the comments by Prof. Lockwood are of interest and possibly the most important point of this article. He suggests that the Arctic blocking resulting from reduced solar activity is affecting the jet stream positions and is similar to what happened during the little ice age, he further forecasts this might continue for 40 years. He has published about this before and other studies of the significance of Arctic blocking have been seen of late, the Moscow heat wave being attributed also. Ignoring the wind for a moment this is also a forecast for cooler and longer winters is it not?…”
