Climate Risk Assessment: Jerrabattgulla, NSW
No measured hazard layer we hold covers Jerrabattgulla, New South Wales, so no suburb-level figure is published for it. That is an absence of mapped data, not a finding that the suburb is safe. A ClimateNest report scores the address itself across eight hazards, with insurance and value projections to 2050.

Climate Hazard Breakdown for Jerrabattgulla
Flood
Jerrabattgulla faces a moderate risk of flooding due to its proximity to waterways and low-lying areas. Intense rainfall events can lead to riverine and flash flooding.
Key drivers:
- ·Increased rainfall intensity
- ·Urban development
Bushfire
The area surrounding Jerrabattgulla is highly susceptible to bushfires, particularly during dry periods. The presence of dense vegetation increases the risk of fire ignition and spread.
Key drivers:
- ·Drier conditions
- ·Increased fuel load
Heat
Jerrabattgulla experiences moderately high temperatures during summer, with potential for heatwaves. Climate change is expected to exacerbate heat-related risks.
Key drivers:
- ·Rising average temperatures
- ·Increased frequency of heatwaves
Coastal
Jerrabattgulla is located inland and has a low risk of coastal hazards such as sea level rise and coastal erosion.
Key drivers:
- ·Distance from the coast

How the region's climate is projected to change
Regional projections, not a forecast for this street. Figures are from the WA Department of Water and Environmental Regulation's climate projections for the South Western Flatlands region, which draws on CSIRO and Bureau of Meteorology modelling.
Temperature
+0.5 to 1.1°C by 2030
Above the 1986–2005 climate, on all emissions scenarios. By 2090, 1.2 to 2.0°C under intermediate emissions or 2.6 to 4.0°C under high emissions.
Rainfall
Winter rain down up to 15% by 2030
The South West has been drying since 1970, and the decline has been larger than anywhere else in Australia. Heavy rainfall events are projected to become more intense even as totals fall.
Fire weather
Harsher, magnitude uncertain
High confidence that fire weather becomes harsher, low confidence in the size of the change, because it depends heavily on summer rainfall.
Sea level
+0.12 m by 2030
At the Fremantle gauge, range 0.07 to 0.16 m. Very high confidence that sea levels continue to rise through the century.
