Heating Degree Days
Heating Degree Days data was reported at 830.220 Degrees Celsius in 2020. This records a decrease from the previous number of 838.730 Degrees Celsius for 2019. Heating Degree Days data is updated yearly, averaging 1,019.300 Degrees Celsius from Dec 1970 (Median) to 2020, with 51 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 1,295.870 Degrees Celsius in 1976 and a record low of 762.490 Degrees Celsius in 2017. Heating Degree Days data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Mexico – Table MX.World Bank.WDI: Environmental: Climate Risk. A heating degree day (HDD) is a measurement designed to track energy use. It is the number of degrees that a day's average temperature is below 18°C (65°F). Daily degree days are accumulated to obtain annual values.;World Bank, Climate Change Knowledge Portal. https://climateknowledgeportal.worldbank.org;;

Mean Drought Index
Mean Drought Index data was reported at 0.460 NA in 2021. This records an increase from the previous number of -1.884 NA for 2020. Mean Drought Index data is updated yearly, averaging 0.062 NA from Dec 1960 (Median) to 2021, with 62 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 1.830 NA in 1981 and a record low of -1.894 NA in 2011. Mean Drought Index data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Mexico – Table MX.World Bank.WDI: Environmental: Climate Risk. The SPEI fulfills the requirements of a drought index since its multi-scalar character enables it to be used by different scientific disciplines to detect, monitor, and analyze droughts. Like the sc-PDSI and the SPI, the SPEI can measure drought severity according to its intensity and duration, and can identify the onset and end of drought episodes. The SPEI allows comparison of drought severity through time and space, since it can be calculated over a wide range of climates, as can the SPI.;Global SPEI database (SPEIbase). https://spei.csic.es/database.html;;
