Abstract

The article explores the reason behind the heavy rainfall recorded in Colorado in September 2013, when the city of Boulder nearly doubled its daily rainfall record with 43.6 centimeters during the week of September 9-15. Topics discussed include the realistic statistics generated by the GEOS-5 simulation from the Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN)-Daily dataset and the relationship between the probability of heavy five-day rainfall and atmospheric water vapor.
