Revealing the synoptic patterns related to hourly extreme precipitation (EP) is very important to deepen our recognition and understanding of EP formation. The predominant synoptic patterns associated with the summer regional hourly EP events (RHEPE) over the central‐eastern Tibetan Plateau (CETP) and Sichuan Basin (SCB) have been systematically identified. Results show the summer RHEPE over CETP and SCB are dominated by the background large‐scale circulations featured by the configuration of eastward‐extended South Asia high (SAH) and westward‐extended Western North Pacific Subtropical High (WNPSH) and their northward advance, except for that an obvious low‐level vortex imbedded in the background large‐scale circulations is mainly responsible for the summer RHEPE over SCB. The frequency and intensity of the total summer RHEPE over CETP and SCB all show an obvious …
