Abstract: The author has studied on a syn optic air-sea interaction in order to realize typhoons' evolution on their tracks and to evaluate approximate rainfall expected in their stormy areas at landing of the typhoons on the coast facing the northwestern Pacific. Lowering of the sea surface temperature (SST) during a typhoon is also noted as a step to evaluate the total amount of rainfall in the coastal zone during the considering typhoon. Some of the of fshore observations at a tower station is used for this study. An effect of the storm flood spread might be seen by referring to synoptic pattern of Kuroshio off the coast in the Pacific. With the studies as noted above, thermal and water-mass budgets on the sea surface during a typhoon are discussed. For a convenience, the case of the typhoon 8719 is taken as a specific case in this work.
