The flooding in South Yorkshire in the United Kingdom (UK) in autumn 2019 saw one fatality, at least 500 properties flooded and 1 200 households evacuated. The worst of the flooding occurred after very high 24-h rainfall totals of up to 82 mm fell on already saturated ground. This followed very high 24-h rainfall totals in the region just two weeks earlier of up to just under 50 mm. In the light of anthropogenic climate change, it is expected that extreme rainfall events are set to become more intense as a result of increased global mean temperatures and the Clausius-Clapeyron relation. Here we investigate the change in risk of such extreme rainfall events in the UK in autumn using a new index R50mm_OND, representing the mean number of dail...
