Short summary
Two simple neural networks are trained to detect rainfall events using signal loss from commercial microwave links. Whereas existing rainfall event detection methods have focused on hourly resolution reference data, this study uses weather radar and rain gauges with 5 min and 1 min temporal resolutions, respectively. Our results show that the developed neural networks can detect rainfall events with a higher temporal precision than existing methods.
