This factor takes into account the amount and frequency of precipitation in the study area. Annual average precipitation is fairly uniform across the pilot area and was assigned a value of 0.2. The average number of rainy days for this pilot is 225, which results in a low intensity value for for precipitation and an overall low reduction of protection ā€˜Pā€™ score overall
