A spatial rainfall model was applied to radar data of air mass thunderstorms to yield a rainstorm representation as a set of convective rain cells. The modeled rainfall was used as input into hydrological model, instead of the standard radar‐grid data. This approach allows a comprehensive linkage between runoff responses and rainfall structures.
