At 2ºC GWL and beyond, cities in SEU and large parts of WCE would exceed the historical maximum 12-month Drought Severity index of the past 50 years  and 30% will have at least 30% probability of exceeding this maximum every month . This could adversely affect the operation of municipal water services . For example, under 2°C GWL, the reservoir storage volume is predicted to decrease for all of England and Wales catchments, resulting in a probability of years with water-use restrictions doubling by 2050 and quadrupling by 2100 compared with 1975-2004 . The combination of high temperatures, drought and extreme winds, potentially coupled with insufficient preparedness and adaptation, may amplify the damage of wildfires in peri-urban environments . High fuel load combined with proximity of the built environment to wildland highly increases fire risks .
