The rainfall distribution over the Indian Subcontinent during recent two severe floods (1987 and 1988) in Bangladesh was examined using daily station-based rainfall data. Although the distribution of summer monsoon rainfall in the whole Indian Subcontinent was contrastive between 1987 and 1988, that in the northeastern part of the Subcontinent was not very different. In both years, rainfall was abundant in northeastern and northwestern part of Bangladesh and adjacent Indian territory. This rainfall pattern was also obvious during and/or prior to the severe flood events in Bangladesh. In seasonal or monthly time scale, in 1988 when compared with the situation in 1987, the maximum rainfall area near northwestern Bangladesh was situated slightly northward and rainfall amount in Meghalaya Region near northeastern Bangladesh was more abundant. Extreme high water level of the Ganges in 1987 and that of the Brahmaputra in 1988 were caused under such rainfall distribution.
