Diffuse Systems Two rain-producing events among those reported here are conSidered to fit the category of diffuse convective activity as previously described. These are the events of Sept. 30,1961, and May 19, 1962. Synoptic Conditions The nearest appropriate U.S. Weather Bureau maps, for the 500-mb and surface levels, are shown in Fig. 6. The rain collections on September 30 were obtained from two prefrontal squall lines, the first of which preceded the cold front by about 90 nautical
