Understanding this "blocking diversity" is crucial for one simple reason: blocking is a source of predictability on medium-range timescales. Models have historically underestimated European blocking. This new knowledge on the moisture-driven "superglue" effect should help improve seasonal predictions of heat and rain extremes, giving us a precious few extra days or weeks of warning.
