Overview

What does the data show?  The data shows monthly averages of precipitation amount (mm) for 1991-2020 from HadUK gridded data. It is provided on a 12km British National Grid (BNG).    Limitations of the dataWe recommend the use of multiple grid cells or an average of grid cells around a point of interest to help users get a sense of the variability in the area. This will provide a more robust set of values for informing decisions based on the data.What are the naming conventions and how do I explore the data?  This data contains a field for each month’s average over the period. They are named 'pr' (precipitation) and the month. E.g. 'pr March' is the rainfall amount for March in the period 1991-2020.    To understand how to explore the data, see this page: https://climatedataportal.metoffice.gov.uk/pages/user-guide  Please note, if viewing in ArcGIS Map Viewer, the map will default to ‘pr January’ values.  Data source:?  ·       Version: HadUK-Grid v1.1.0.0 (downloaded 26/08/2022)  ·       Source: https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/652cea3b8b4446f7bff73be0ce99ba0f  ·       Filename: rainfall_hadukgrid_uk_12km_mon-30y_199101-202012.nc      Useful links  ·       Further information on HadUK-Grid  ·       Further information on understanding climate data within the Met Office Climate Data Portal
