Evaluation of WRF high-resolution simulation of extreme precipitation over the New York city metropolitan area

Key Points

• Extreme precipitation events can significantly affect urban areas, leading to potential flooding and infrastructure damage.
• The validation process compared observed data with high-resolution simulation outputs from the WRF model.
• Meteorological data across multiple locations highlighted discrepancies between model predictions and real-world observations.
• Improvements in high-resolution simulations may enhance forecasting accuracy for extreme precipitation events.
