Hong Kong climate: monthly averages

Everything below is collected in one spot so you do not have to cross-check Hong Kong climate: monthly averages by hand. The gap between Jan and Jul is 12.5 C here: 16.0 C against 28.5 C. Precipitation peaks in Jun (9.40 mm/day) and bottoms out in Dec (0.82 mm/day), so a 11.5x difference between the two. Taken together that is roughly 1,395 mm of rain a year for the grid cell. Because each page is rebuilt independently, one unavailable upstream never takes the rest of the site down. The table underneath carries the per-month breakdown; the related pages cover the same dataset nearby.

What the Hong Kong climate table shows

Values are multi-decadal climatological averages for the 22.2783, 114.1747 grid cell, not a single year. Rain is the daily mean, so a value of 2.00 mm/day is about 60 mm across a 30-day month. Averages smooth over extremes, so use them for planning rather than for what to pack for next Tuesday.

Frequently asked questions

Why do the numbers differ from a weather app?

An app shows one location on one day. These are long-run averages, so they smooth out single hot or cold spells.

How much rain is 9.40 mm/day in a month?

Rain is recorded as a daily mean, so 9.40 mm/day is roughly 286 mm across a 30-day month.
