A study has been done of the diurnal variation of rainfall in Brahmaputra valley considering the mean hourly monthly rainfall at four stations distributed throughout the valley. It is found that a well marked variation in the rainfall exists with a maximum in the early morning hours and minimum in the afternoon hours in the area. It has been argued that this is mainly due to the mountain winds.
