In the framework of the Hydrological Cycle of the Mediterranean Experiment (HyMeX), the high precipitation event (HPE) of 23 October 2012 is investigated. In the morning, a highly localized convective system developed over the southeast of Corsica, close to Porto‐Vecchio. Its precipitation maximum is estimated at over 100 mm within 6 h. The Meso‐NH model is used with a horizontal grid spacing of 2.5 km to simulate the HPE. Different input datasets and starting times are used to assess the predictability of the event and the large spread of this initial condition ensemble indicates low predictability. Among the nine ensemble members only one captures the timing and location of the event.
