Question
How much precipitation is indicated by the model to fall (proper units are a must. Hint: this means that you must give both the proper amount and time interval).
Make an argument on whether or not precipitation is forecast to be falling at the time the model is valid using data from only the lower-right panel. NOTE: This panel can be a little hard to read. If you want a second source you can use PivotalWeather's 700mb map. Make sure your model runtimes agree.

Again, to find the prog that you need, move your mouse over the numbers located at the upper left, above the image. How might you change your precipitation forecast given this additional model data?

Explanation:
1. The map which can be seen in the lower right panel says that there is a snowfall as we can see the symbol of snow. But if we consider the Pivotal Weather’s 700mb map then it can be said that forecast is given for every 3 hrs interval like 12, 3, 6, 9 and so on and here the precipitation unit is ‘inches’. It seems from that GFS model that 3 hours accumulated QPF that is quantitative precipitation ranges between 0.1 – 0.9 inches.
It can be said that this amount of precipitation can be validated from the upper right panel map as some scattered low-pressure areas can be seen and mainly this areas are experiencing the precipitation.
2. If we run a slideshow for this model to forecast then we can found that a cyclone is initiating in the south US near Florida.
Hope this will help you.
