Abstract
When cloud-radiation interaction is excluded, the decreases in the mean rain rate are associated with the slowdown in the mean hydrometeor loss on 15 July and the suppression in the net condensation on 16 July. The decreased mean rainfall is mainly from convective regions on 15 July and raining stratiform regions on 16 July. The reduced convective rainfall is associated with strengthened transport of hydrometeor concentration from convective regions to raining stratiform regions on 15 July, whereas the decreased stratiform rainfall is related to the weakened water vapor convergence on 16 July.
