Accurate subseasonal prediction of East Asian summer precipitation (EASP) requires a deep understanding of the origins of its intraseasonal variability (ISV). However, the relative contributions to the EASP ISV from local processes, tropical intraseasonal oscillation (ISO), and extratropical influence remain unknown. We conducted a set of numerical experiments with a grid nudging method to confirm the roles of external forcing from mid‐to‐high latitude wave trains and tropical ISO and quantify their relative contributions. The Community Earth System Model can reproduce realistic EASP ISV and associated preceding signals. The tropical and mid‐to‐high latitude forcings account for, respectively, 53% and 40% of the total variance for the two leading ISV modes of EASP. The tropical forcing contributes more significantly to the two leading modes (31% and 40%, respectively) compared to the extratropical forcing (24% and 15%). These external forcings mainly affect EASP regional averages rather than the values of local (grid) scale.
