ABSTRACT This report is a summary of China’s climate, as well as major weather and climate events, during 2019. In 2019, the mean temperature in China was 10.34°C, which was 0.79°C above normal (1981–2010 average), and the annual rainfall was 645.5 mm, which was 2.5% above normal. There was increased typhoon genesis but decreased and weaker landfalls. Rainstorms occurred frequently with relatively limited damage. The number of high-temperature days was more than normal, with significant regional features. Obvious regional and periodic droughts resulted in slight impacts and losses. Severe convective weather events were relatively less and brought about limited economic losses. Low-temperature freezing and snow disasters were obviously light. Northern China experienced fewer dust storms in spring. Finally, the areas of affected crops, the numbers of deaths and missing people, and direct economic losses were all significantly less than average over the past 10 years. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
