| description abstract | An investigation of the dates of occurrence of heaviest rainfall is very important for flood forecasting. We have considered this aspect in the present study by examining the daily rainfall data for four coastal stations Kakinada, Masulipatnam, Nellore and Visakhapatnam for the month of October for a 10-year period 1973?82. The data have been analyzed by considering the heaviest rainfalls for each station separately. We have defined the heaviest rainfall as that which exceeds two or more times the mean rainfall of the month. The study shows that heaviest rainfalls occur during the period 16?23 October. This feature is repeated year after year, constituting a rainfall singularity for the region. | |
