Radiosonde data spanning 25 yr have been subjected to superposed epoch analysis using as key days those days with major solar flares. A clear decrease in atmospheric temperature is observed three days after the key day at Alice Springs. Monte Carlo tests and the Sign Test confirm the significance of this result. Similar effects are observed at other locations but they are not as clear. The effect is also clearer if winter months are excluded. The worldwide tendency for these relationships to be clearest in January-February lends support to suggested mechanisms involving the global electric field.
