Interaction of the diurnal cycle of rainfall systems between land and sea were investigated by hourly rainfall of 3B41RT TRMM dataset, daily SST dataset from OISST, 6- hourly wind and temperature data from NCEP-NCAR Reanalysis, during period of NDJFM 2000-2016. The results showed that the diurnal cycle of rainfall from sea to land and from land to sea randomly occurred on four combinations of CENS-CT, NCENS-CT, CENS-NCT, NCENS-NCT. Diurnal rainfall in northern coast of West Java for normal conditions without CENS-CT has two maximas, namely late afternoon and early morning rainfall. CENS-CT interaction changes the normal diurnal rainfall pattern into three diurnal rainfall systems: diurnal rainfall with propagate B pattern which is identified by the afternoon continous to morning rainfall and there is an offshore propagation from sea to land that occurred in the morning, diurnal rainfall with a nonpropagate pattern, namely morning rainfall which has increased intensity and duration while afternoon rainfall is minimum, diurnal rainfall with propagate A pattern which experienced rainfall from land to sea and there was a merger between the afternoon rainfall system over the land and the morning rainfall system over the sea.
