The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of wind speed upon the measurement of rainfall. The study site was established at the meteorological station of the National Pingtung University of Science and Technology. A five-opening directional rain gauge, standard rain gauge and aero vane type self-recorded device were installed. From August 2000 to August 2004, about 500 events of 10 minutes each record were obtained, and the results were summarized as follows: (1) When the rainfall intensity was constant, the rate of rainfall loss increased when the wind speed increased. When average wind speed reached 5 ms^(-1), the rate of rainfall loss was about 24%. The rate of rainfall loss was about 50% when the average wind speed reached 15 ms^(-1). (2) When the rainfall intensity was constant, the rainfall angle increased when the wind speed increased. And, average wind speed reached 5 ms^(-1), with the rainfall angle at about 23°. The rainfall angle was about 41°, when the average wind speed reached 15 ms^(-1). The rate of rainfall loss was increased when the rainfall angle increased.
