This forecast is from a National Weather
Service computer model, one of several run daily. This one is called "Eta."
Computer models forecast, temperature, winds, moisture and precipitation fields
for a given region. This one covers the Northeast and is used by meteorologists
at the National Weather Service. The
precipitation data shown here is an average for small squares 80 kilometers
(49.6 miles) on a side. If the forecast indicates 1 inch of rain for a given
area it is possible that 25 percent of that area gets 4 inches of rain and the rest
gets nothing. This will give an average rainfall for this area of 1 inch. It
does NOT mean every spot within that area will get 1 inch of rain.
