A mathematical, model for Quantitative Precipitation Forecasting (QPF) has been developed on the basis of physical and dynamical laws. The surface and upper air meteorological observations have been used as inputs in the model. The output is the rate of precipitation from which the amount of precipitation can be computed time integration. The model can be used operationally for rainfall forecasting.
