During the month from mid-August to mid-September river stage has varied widely from low flows of 0.25 m stage to peaks of up to 1.3 m. Typhoon No.10 passed over northern Japan during August 30-31 and brought moderately heavy rain to the Takiya River basin. Total storm precipitation of 92 mm and an hourly maximum of 24 mm/h fell at Mt. Ishiguro (elevation 900 m), while low elevation gauges at Miomote and Takane (Amedas) recorded lower intensities and about 60 mm for the storm total.

The newly installed Hobo logger was almost buried under the loose and unconsolidated gravel.
