The study was carried out to develop rainfall forecasting Models. Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) was used for developing Models rainfall of Udaipur city. Two data sets were prepared using 35 year of weather parameters i.e. wet bulb temperature, mean temperature, relative humidity and evaporation of previous day and previous moving average week were used to prepare case I and case II respectively. Gaussian and Generalized Bell membership functions were used to prepare models. Statistical and hydrologic performance indices of ANFIS (Gaussian, 5) gave better performance among developed four models. The study showed that sensitivity analysis revealed wet bulb temperature is most sensible parameter followed by mean temperature, relative humidity and evaporation.
