a Rainfall regions at the height of 20 m at 12:00 JST reproduced by each of the 12 ensemble members of NHM-350. Enlarged views of the distributions of rainfall and horizontal wind by b #004 and c #007. The red rectangles in a indicate the regions shown in b and c. The red dots in a and b show the positions of vorticity exceeding 0.1 s−1 at 12:00 JST, and the red circle in b shows where convergence is occurring near the northern rainfall region. The thin contours are the stream lines of horizontal wind
