The forthcoming Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Mission will provide next‐generation precipitation observations from a constellation of satellites. Since precipitation by nature has large variability and low predictability at cloud‐resolving scales, the impact of precipitation data on the skills of mesoscale numerical weather prediction (NWP) is largely affected by the characterization of background and observation errors and the representation of nonlinear cloud/precipitation physics in an NWP data assimilation system.
