NWS Hydrology WFO Responsibilities Data collection Data collection Interacting with local officials and media Interacting with local officials and media Forecast dissemination Forecast dissemination Led by Service Hydrologist Led by Service Hydrologist

NWS Hydrology RFC Responsibilities NWS Hydrology RFC Responsibilities Precipitation estimates and forecasts merged into continuous dataset Precipitation dataset ingested into hydrologic model. Forecasters adjust model parameters in real time Provide River forecast to WFO and issue to public Staff of 15 to prepare forecasts

Current Forecast Locations Products prepared for each official forecast location Products prepared for each official forecast location –5-day forecast –Probabilistic forecasts of weekly chance of exceeding stage, flow, and cumulative flow –Probabilistic forecasts of chance of exceeding stage, flow, and cumulative flow for the next 90 days

Modeled Locations Simulate flows at all these locations Simulate flows at all these locations Additional locations help in preparing flood forecasts Additional locations help in preparing flood forecasts Not all sites have real-time data Not all sites have real-time data

5-Day Forecast Forecasts updated daily based on 7AM observations Forecasts updated daily based on 7AM observations Updates in the evening and when needed during significant events Updates in the evening and when needed during significant events Includes 12 hours of forecasted rainfall Includes 12 hours of forecasted rainfall
