Description
Hourly estimates of rainfall accumulations were produced within the framework of the SPITBRAN Special project, which received computational resources from ECMWF (https://www.ecmwf.int/en/research/special-projects/spitbran-2018).
Numerical gridded data at 2.5 km grid spacing were obtained with the MOLOCH model set in a convection-permitting mode and fed by ERA5 data as initial and boundary conditions for the period 1979-2019 and over the Italian domain.
Hourly rainfall accumulations of such long-term hindcast are provided for the years 1994 and 2011. File format is Grib2.
