What can we wait for extreme weather? For finding an answer, we need to combine data from various sources and develop appropriate models of our environment. Here we tuned a hydrological model for 314 UK catchments using the ERA5 climate reanalysis and gauged river flow time-series data, and then simulated a runoff response to different scenarios of four years, eleven months, and two days of rain.
