Europe's rainfall in the 2080s
Heavy winter downpours and flooding are likely to become more common across most of Europe by the 2080s. Precipitation could go up by more than 30% across most of Scandinavia, while in part of northern Italy it may rise by more than 50%. During the summer, on the other hand, southern Europe is likely to get much drier.
