High‐resolution vertically pointing S‐band Doppler radar data obtained within orographic rain by the University of Washington Orographic Precipitation Radar (OPRA) at Locarno‐Monti, Switzerland during the Mesoscale Alpine Programme (MAP) Intensive Observing Periods (IOPs) 2b and 8 are examined to characterize the fine‐scale precipitation structure. The relative roles of collection of cloud water by raindrops versus collection of cloud water by ice particles (riming) in the same column are assessed with a one‐dimensional (1D) Kessler water‐continuity model using the observed data characteristics as input.
