Abstract: The effect of inter-tropical convergence zone movement on the precipitation fall has been investigated in six locations in a tacit form. The investigation shows that the ITC movement affects precipitation fall index though not in isolation. Other factors include prevailing trade winds and the air mass they carry. The work also identifies the onset of rain in a location with the initial appearance of ITCZ.
