Abstract
A maximum rainfall of 38 in. was recorded during an 18-hr period as a typhoon passed over the island of Okinawa in September 1956. The observed weather conditions during the typhoon passage are discussed in relationship to the observed rainfall distribution on the island and some comments are offered on the problems of evaluating the reliability of measurements of very heavy rainfall.Keywords
