How many climate drops are there; can I expect more of these?

One side note; Food from the Fishing Jetty and Granary lines aren't affected by the climate change drops (which makes sense). These have helped me a good bit in maintaining food surplus (albeit relatively small ones) in provinces with Meagre fertility.

Playing as the Geats, I had a 3rd climate change event between turns 141 & 153 (based on my save games). So all regions of base fertility 3 or fewer dropped to "infertile". They don't drop down any lower than that, even when negative. My Scandva province is still a worthwhile one, though I had to add a goat barns (or whatever they are called) and make sure I had the non-farm improvements in my city province that produce food (the sanitation one and the Trade Depot).

That 3rd climate event leaves an infertile sweep across the north: all of Britain, Germany, Scandinavia and Sarmatia. Belgum/France has +4 base fertility so it is not so badly hit. I can see eastern Spain is also an infertile area but not sure about the rest of the southern part of the map - I haven't explored all of it yet.
