摘要: Problem statement: This study mainly discusses the possibility of PWV derived from GPS data for monitoring water vapor changes during t he severe flood due to heavy rainfall. There are tw o cases rainfall recorded winter monsoon in November 2009 at Kuala Krai, Kelantan. Approach: The first and second were sustained 3 day s 4-6 7 days 18 until 24 with maximum daily more than 180 mm 220 mm, respectively. However Malaysia Meteorology Department (MMD) report, only case was caused flood. surface meteorological both showed a significant response Results: During flood, observed decreased about 3.52 mm. Conclusion: We highlighted that widespread enormous cumulonimbus cloud cluster sheltered area cold surge monsoo n can cause unnatural peak on
