Great read! I liked your drawings and the way you used basic physics.
Rainfall is a rather variable phenomenon in terms of space and time, making it pretty difficult to analyze precisely. Most commonly measured characteristics of specific rainfall events are:
- Total Height (mm)
- Duration (h)
- Average Intensity (mm/h)
- Maximum Intensity (mm/h)
- Uniformity of Distribution (usually checked using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, basically a measure of the distance between distributions)
All measurable quantities taken into consideration while studying a rainfall event are directly related to time, so I totally agree with your conclusion.
I really enjoyed your post, didn't mean to spam you! :p
Have a nice day!
Thank you so much for visiting and for your valuable input, which under no circumstances is spam!
I wanted this post to be as simple as possible and to showcase that the conclusion in all cases - researches - tests conducted is the same, that we should either carry an umbrella or run as fast as we can!
Thanks again : )
