Observations aboard spacecraft passing through interplanetary magnetic clouds on the earth orbit showed signs of a monotonic deceleration of plasma filling these clouds. This paper presents a formula describing local deceleration of a cloud on the earth orbit, together with examples indicating that the expected cloud deceleration effect can be detected, at least qualitatively, within the velocity data obtained for interplanetary plasma. The deceleration effect explains the Lepping paradox (Lepping et al., 1990), according to which the average velocity of a magnetic cloud measured on one spacecraft is less than the velocity of the solar wind ahead of the spacecraft.
