"Guerilla heavy rainfall" is a newly-coined word by mass media of Japan. The four major newspaper publishing companies began to use this word frequently from the beginning of August, 2008. The definition of "Guerilla heavy rainfall" is not clear. It was found from the result of newspaper article analysis from 2008 to 2009 that short-time very heavy rainfall events are called "Guerilla heavy rainfall". In this study, the rainfall event of 80mm or more of rainfalls of 1 hour and 149mm or less of rainfalls was defined as "Guerilla heavy rainfall". 104 events of "Guerilla heavy rainfall" were extracted from AMeDAS precipitation data from 1979 to 2008. There were two victims of these heavy rainfall events in total. They killed at basement or underpass. Although inundation above the floor level occurred in 38% of event, the damage of 100 or more buildings was 9%. We may say that "Guerilla heavy rainfall" does not cause large-scale damage. However, it is necessary to keep in mind that damage caused by "Guerilla heavy rainfall" is generated well in high-risk area of flood, such as basement, underpass, low land and river park.
