      I would like to know whether the description in the attached photo, specifically in the section titled "NUVOLE" (Clouds) related to the AROME model, is accurate.
      Since AROME is a non-hydrostatic model, it is capable of resolving clouds and phenomena arising from convective events.

      Is there any mistake or inaccuracy in the description of the "NUVOLE" section?

        It is said that ”rain from convective clouds cannot be included in this value”. This applies for all weather models not only AROME. AROME was designed to be more efficient at forecasting deep convection, but all models forecast convective rains. See in Meteogram the detailed forecast for precipitation (rain, convective rain, snow).
