And how up to date was that research. It's a known fact that the last
severe glaciation ( coldest part of the last ice age ) was an average of 10
degrees Celsius colder than present. There was ice hundreds maybe thousands
of feet thick covering a large part of the Northern hemisphere, I can tell
you now, the circulation of that time was very different.

There must be ten or more different ideas relating to ice age climate, mine
is just one, H H Lamb is just one of many.

The prevailing wind was still south-westerly!

Not according to H H Lamb. The main Atlantic Low was much further
south than today (45-50N) and the prevailing wind over the UK was
roughly SE'ly.
