This paper deals with the appearance properties of large wave heights in storm. Several wave data obtained in the Japan Sea are analyzed to investigate the properties of wave height. A simple simulation method of random wave in storm is also proposed for the purpose of the supplementing the wave data. The energy spectrum of wave, the significant wave height and period are used to simulate the random waves. This simulation method is applied to estimation of the characteristics of large wave heights at other wave observation points.
