✦ Synopsis

Abstract

The amounts and intensities of rainfall are related to each front that crossed Greece during the period 1971–1981 by using synoptic messages from 26 meteorological stations and from 26 autographic rain‐gauges. The fronts were related to five depression tracks described by Flocas. The amount of rainfall was considered for periods of 15, 30, and 60 minutes and related to slight, moderate, heavy, and violent intensities. This information will provide a climatological background to forecasts of frontal rainfall.

## Abstract Since Israel is located far from large oceans, availability of moisture may be a limiting factor in producing rainfall by synoptic‐scale disturbances. Thus, moisture evaporating from the nearby Mediterranean Sea may become an important factor in producing precipitation in the region. A
