A deep‑learning model that converts dynamical circulation forecasts into precipitation estimates predicts a dry anomaly over central China in summer 2026, with consistent signals from March to May. Retrospective tests show the model performs best in analogue years marked by sustained central equatorial Pacific warming, which promotes a cyclonic circulation that drives northerly winds and moisture divergence, suppressing rainfall. Layer‑wise relevance propagation identifies these northerly winds as the key driver, and perturbation tests confirm that removing them eliminates the dry anomaly, demonstrating a physically interpretable link between AI predictions and climate dynamics.

arXiv:2608. 12271v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Global weather reanalyses and forecasts resolve the evolving atmospheric state on coarse grids, but site-specific applications require predictions at arbitrary locations where near-surface conditions also depend on unresolved terrain and land-surface properties.
