Explanation:
Precipitation graphics presented here are derived from NCEP Global Forecast System (GFS) model output data. Data resolution is 0.375 degree (~37.5km) and the model initialization time is 00 GMT (4:30am Afghan time). Thus the daily precipitation forecasts correspond to the 4:30am-4:30am 24-hour period. Shown for each day are forecast precipitation (mm) and forecast snow depth change for the 24 hour period. Note that the left graphic is forecast precipitation, not rainfall.
