Frequent occurrence of urban rainy weather, especially rainstorm weather, affects transportation operation and safety, so it is essential that effective intervention measures to recover disordered traffic be adopted and then analyzed for their influence on the dynamic network. Therefore, models and algorithm to show dynamic traffic flow of traffic network in rainy weather are a fundamental need and have drawn great interest from governments and scholars. In this paper, innovative content contains a travel cost function considering rainfall intensity; considering the travel cost function, a dynamic traffic assignment model based on dynamic rainfall intensity is built. Then a corresponding algorithm is designed. Moreover, this study designs three scenarios under rainfall and analyzes the influence of the rainfall on an example network. The results show that rainfall has a significant effect on traffic flow. The finding proved the proposed models and algorithm can express the development trend of path flow rate on a dynamic network under rainfall.
