In such situation, errors might occur when predicting the weather in Europe upon the cyclone moving eastward or a blocking anticyclone appears in front of it, which blocks the way.
The interactions between a mid-latitude blocking anticyclone and synoptic scale cyclones that occurred during the summer season, Monthly Weather Review 126(2): 502-515.
Previous studies of blocking anticyclone lifecycles have shown that boundary layer friction was one of the primary forcing mechanisms in the decay process.
A 15-YEAR GLOBAL CLIMATOLOGY OF BLOCKING ANTICYCLONES. Blocking anticyclones are large scale phenomena which have long been of interest to the meteorology community.

The
blocking anticyclone assisted in keeping the western U.S.
The influx of latent heat in the block area could contribute to the energy supply of the
blocking anticyclone and prolong its existence.
However, in the absence of a clear theory explaining this, most modelers would not feel especially confident in such a result, especially as the CMIP models do not simulate long-lived
blocking anticyclones with any degree of realism (Masato et al 2013), and even models with higher atmospheric resolution still suffer large biases in Euro-Atlantic blocking (Schiemann et al.
