Abstract The Simple Precipitation Intensity Index (SDII) represents the average daily rainfall for days with daily rainfall equal to or more than one mm of rainfall (2001 WMO). The SDII is a climate change indicator for the wet season of a year. The analysis of the average daily SDII (mm) for 2022 suggests that the average daily rainfall for Namibia, South Africa and Zambia was above average, while the average daily SDII for Zimbabwe was below average. Angola and Botswana's average daily SDII was normal, if compared to the historic average SDII, from 1981 to 2021. ?
