JMA ’ s Definition of Extreme Climate The Criteria for Monthly Data EXTREME CLIMATE The phenomenon that would occur once in about 30 years EXTREME MONTHLY CLIMATE Temperature : the normalized anomaly ≧ 2 the normalized anomaly ≦ -2 the normalized anomaly = anomaly / standard deviation Precipitation : Quintile = 6 or 0 Quintile 6 : the precipitation is greater than any value in 1971 - 2000 0 : the precipitation is less than any value in 1971 - 2000 Climatological normals are calculated from the statistics of 1971 - 2000 data.

EXTREME MONTHLY CLIMATE Temperature : the normalized anomaly ≧ 2 the normalized anomaly ≦ -2 the normalized anomaly = anomaly / standard deviation Precipitation : Quintile = 6 or 0 Quintile 6 : the precipitation is greater than any value in 1971 - 2000 0 : the precipitation is less than any value in 1971 - 2000 Weekly Extreme Climate EXTREME CLIMATE The phenomenon that would occur once in about 30 years Temperature : the normalized anomaly ≧ 3 : WARM the normalized anomaly ≦ -3 : COLD the normalized anomaly = anomaly / 30-day standard deviation anomaly = weekly mean temperature - weekly normal Precipitation : precipitation in a week exceeds the 30-day normal : WET precipitation in the last 30-day is less than the threshold of quintile 1 for the 30-day : DRY Weekly normal, 30-day normal, 30-day standard deviation and 30-day quintile are calculated by interpolating monthly values of the previous (or following) and the current month. Monthly normals are calculated from the statistics of 1971 - 2000 data. The criteria are decided from research for Japanese observatories.

Products of monitoring of surface climate Distribution of Extreme Weekly Climate 1 October, 2003 Japan Meteorological Agency Weekly Report on Global Extreme Climate Events ( 24 September, 2003 - 30 September, 2003 ) Extreme weather and climate events and/or weather disasters in this period are as follows ; 1. Wet : northern China 2. Warm : central China 3. Cold : northwestern China to eastern Kazakhstan 4. Wet : northern and central India 5. Wet : northern Algeria, Tunisia and northern Italy 6. Warm : northeastern USA and eastern Canada to southern Greenland 7. Hurricane : eastern Canada Hurricane “Juan” made landfall on eastern Canada on 29 September. In eastern Canada, fatalities caused by Hurricane were reported. 8. Warm : western USA 9. Dry : eastern Australia 10. Wet : southwestern Australia

Reference : Quintile The 30 monthly values of precipitation, the statistical period of calculation for climatological normals, are listed in ascending order. The list is then divided into five groups of quintiles of six values each. The first quintile contains the lowest 6 values and the fifth quintile contains the highest 6 values. Example 60.0mm => quintile 1 220.0mm => quintile 4 420.0mm => quintile 6
