A preliminary cause analysis of extremely less precipitation in Heilongjiang Province in July 2020 was carried out by using the monthly precipitation data at 62 meteorological stations of Heilongjiang Province, reanalysis data from National Center for Environmental Prediction and circulation indices from National Climate Center of China Meteorological Administration, etc. Results are as follows: (1) The precipitation was abnormally less in Heilongjiang in July 2020, and the average precipitation in the whole province was only 75.0 mm, which was the second least since 1961. (2) When the precipitation was abnormally less in Heilongjiang Province in July, the negative phase distribution with East Asia-Pacific teleconnection (EAP) pattern appeared over the East Asian coast from low to high latitude at 500 hPa geopotential height anomaly field in the same period, the position of East Asian subtropical westerly jet (EASWJ) obviously leaned to south, and the anomalous anticyclone-cyclone circulation appeared over northeastern China to near the Yellow Sea at the lower level of troposphere, the integrated water vapor diverged over Heilongjiang Province. The circulation characteristics in July 2020 were similar to those in the same period of less rain years, but the intensity of the jet center and its negative anomaly areas on the north side was significantly stronger than those in less rain years, and the center of the jet moved slightly to the east, the meridional wave train in troposphere over East Asian coast was more clearly. The abnormally southerly EASWJ played an important role on abnormally less precipitation in Heilongjiang Province in July 2020. (3) The atmospheric heat source near the South China Sea in May 2020 was abnormally weak, and the distribution of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) appeared negative phase in July 2020, which caused the EASWJ to move anomalously southward in July through the meridional wave train of EAP teleconnection over East Asian coast and zonal wave train over the middle-high latitude of Eurasia, respectively, and resulted in less precipitation in Heilongjiang Province.
