| Abstract | Rainfall characteristics and large-scale atmospheric fields on the “heavy rainfall days” (with more than
50mm/day) in midsummer, and so on, at Tokyo in the eastern Japan were examined for 1971 to 2010,
succeeding to Matsumoto et al. (2013)
The present study firstly examined the rainfall features and the atmospheric fields for the “heavy rainfall
days” at Tokyo with rather lower appearance frequency than in the typhoon related patterns in Matsumoto et
al. (2013) and so on. In these cases (three cases in total), although the synoptic situations were rather
different among each other, they seem to occur under the systems with relatively small zonal scale
associated with the great meander of the upper-level westerly wind.
Next, the climatological analyses similar to Matsumoto et al. (2013) were performed for the "heavy rain
days" at Tokyo in midsummer (1~31 August). The precipitation on the “heavy rainfall days” at Tokyo in
midsummer was mainly brought by the intense rainfall with more than 10 mm/h, as in the western Japan in
the mature stage of the Baiu season. The detailed examination of the rainfall features for the case on 10
August 2009, with use of the 10-minutes precipitation data and the Radar AMeDAS Composite Data by the
JMA, revealed that the organized meso-β-scale convective rainfall systems as often appear in the western
Japan in the mature stage of the Baiu season were just to the east of the typhoon, and brought the intense
rainfall at Tokyo to result in the large daily precipitation.
