Rainfall is probably the most important parameter that is predicted by numerical weather prediction models, though the skill of rainfall prediction is the poorest compared to other parameters, e.g., temperature and humidity. In this study, the impact of rainfall assimilation on mesoscale model forecasts is evaluated during Indian summer monsoon 2011. The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model and its four-dimensional variational data assimilation system are used to assimilate the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission 3B42 and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation retrieved rainfall. A total of five experiments are performed daily with and without assimilation of rainfall data during the entire month of July 2011. Separate assimilation experiments are performed to assess the sensitivity of WRF model forecast with strict and less strict quality control. Assimilation of rainfall improves the forecast of temperature, specific humidity, and wind speed. Domain average improvement parameter of rainfall forecast is also improved over the Indian landmass when compared with NOAA Climate Prediction Center Morphing technique and Indian Meteorological Department gridded rainfall.

Using the top-of-the-atmosphere radiative flux and cloud data from satellites, as well as atmospheric data from NCEP-NCAR reanalysis, this paper investigates the reason for the unusually large high-cloud amount in the Asian monsoon region during the summer monsoon season (June-September). Earlier studies attributed the large negative net cloud radiative forcing in the Asian monsoon region to the unusually large high-cloud amounts with high optical depth. Analysis during 1985-89 suggests that the unique upper-tropospheric easterly wind shear [tropical easterly jet (TEJ)], present over the Asian monsoon region during the summer monsoon season, may be responsible for the unusual increase in cloud amount. This strong wind shear sweeps the cloud tops and may be unfavorable for cloud growth beyond about 300 hPa. The spreading of cloud tops by wind may increase the high-cloud amount. A significant association is found between the high-cloud amount and the speed of the easterly jet. In addition, magnitudes of the shortwave, longwave, and net cloud radiative forcing also strongly depend upon the variations in the speed of TEJ.
