EWP

(also EWR)-- England and Wales Precipitation (or Rainfall). A data series combining the rainfall (and melted snowfall) amounts from a matrix of recording stations (well over 30) averaged to produce a single figure for an area taken to represent 'England and Wales'. The series runs from 1766 - maintained (separately) by the Hadley Centre (EWR) and the University of East Anglia (EWP), though I understand that a unified data-set is to be (has been?) produced.
