Based on lightning monitoring data obtained by Heilongjiang lightning location network during 2015-2017, total characteristics, current intensity, annual change trend and density distribution characteristics of lightning in Heilongjiang Province in the three years were analyzed by using statistical analysis method. The results showed that total lightning showed an increasing trend in Heilongjiang in recent years, and average intensity of negative lightning was obviously larger than that of positive lightning, and intensity of ground lightning mainly concentrated in 10-50 kA. Thunder and lightning activity of Heilongjiang was mainly in summer and concentrated during June - September. Daily variation of lightning frequency in Heilongjiang showed obvious single-peak-single-valley type, and change trends of positive lightning, negative lightning and total lightning were basically consistent. Frequent occurrence period of lightning mainly concentrated in 13:00-19:00, accounting for 50.6% of total frequency of lightning, and it was key period of lightning defense in Heilongjiang Province. Regional distribution of lightning density had obvious difference, and lightning mainly concentrated in the Greater Khingan Mountains of north Heilongjiang and Harbin, Yichun and Suihua of central Heilongjiang.
