The numerical model WRF The numerical system used for this study is the Advanced Research WRF (ARW-WRF), version 2.2 ( Skamarock et al. 2005 ; Michalakes et al. 2004 ; more information is available online at http://www.wrf-model.org ), which is a mesoscale numerical weather prediction (NWP) model for operational forecasting and atmospheric research needs. The simulations are carried out using a two-way nesting technique; two grid domains, the outer with a horizontal resolution

archive of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). However, precipitation and radiation fields were produced by carefully combining low-time-resolution observationally based data with 6-hourly model diagnostic fields from reanalyses. Convective and large-scale precipitation fields from NCEP–NCAR reanalysis were rescaled so that the total precipitation for each month agreed with the monthly gridded observed precipitation from the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP
