Description:

"An independently-produced monthly precipitation amount climatology that contains the desired properties was available in the form of graphic atlas maps from a study by Miller and Frederick (1966). This note describes these maps, and a graphics-to-grid interpolation procedure used to derive a digital data set from them. The digital data set consists of grid point values of these climatic frequencies on the 20-km QPF predictor/predictand grid. The paper concludes with a few comments on how the data set will be used as a climatic predictor in the QPF technique under development"--Intro.
