Precipitation rates recorded in Barcelona, Spain, over a 20 year period have been processed, and the average annual cumulative distribution is presented. This distribution reflects the meteorological conditions for the North-East of Spain and agrees well with statistics obtained for certain parts of the North of Italy and Greece. The average worst-month distribution is also presented and is related to the annual statistics.

Inspec keywords: rain; statistical analysis; climatology; tropospheric electromagnetic wave propagation; radiowave propagation

Other keywords: average annual cumulative distribution; radiowave propagation; microwave links; meteorological conditions; precipitation rate statistics; troposphere; average worst-month distribution; 20 year period; NE Spain; Barcelona; AD 1960 to 1979; climatology; tropospheric EM wave propagation
