WILCOX et al.1,2 have claimed that some influence associated with the solar magnetic sector structure produces an effect in the terrestrial troposphere, which is manifested by changes in the vorticity area index (VAI). (The VAI is a measure of the strength of the cyclonic circulation in the Northern Hemisphere.) The phenomenon was revealed by means of a superposed-epoch analysis of the VAI data which made use of 54 key days, determined by the solar magnetic data, and produced a mean variation about the key days (Fig. 1-our reconstruction of Fig. 5 of ref. 2). Wilcox et al. concluded that the effect lasts for a few days and introduces changes of up to 10% in the VAI, but occurs only in the winter months.
