    From what I can tell, nobody knows the appropriate probability distribution for precipitation data. It appears to vary by region. The normal distribution isn't widely used because it allows for negative precipitation values and underestimates the probability of large totals. The gamma distribution is widely used, but it too can underestimate the probability of extreme events.
