Abstract
Monthly totals from 30 stations in the Galilee for 20 rainfall seasons (1960/61-1979/80) were regressed against the longitude, the latitude and the altitude of the stations. The distribution of the order of entrance into the multiple regression model of the different independent variables resembles previous results for averaged data over the entire period. The results highlight a coherent period in terms of similar factors affecting the spatial rainfall distribution during February and March. Despite the fact that the orography is the main factor affecting the spatial rainfall distribution in the Galilee, during extremely wet periods (months or seasons) the spatial distribution is related more to the distance from the sea than to the altitude. -Author
