Low solar Atlantic blocking episodes last longer, are located further east and become more intense than high solar blocking events. The implications of these
solar-related changes are discussed. Our results suggest that the excessively cold conditions recorded in Europe during the Maunder Minimum may have arisen from an eastward shift of long-lasting blockings with near-normal frequencies.
