Abstract
It is known that the rain rate exceeded 0.01 % of the time has experienced an increasing trend, in the UK, over the last twenty years. It is very likely that rain fade and outage experience a similar trend. This paper presents a method, applicably globally, to estimate these trends. The input data are parameters easily extracted from numerical weather prediction reanalysis data. The method is verified using rain gauge data from the UK.
