1 Arkansas-Red Basin River Forecast Center Operations RRVA Conference Durant, OK 8/22/2013 Jeff McMurphy Sr. Hydrologist - ABRFC
2 NWS River Forecast Centers
3 NWS Weather Forecast Offices
4 Operations Staffing and Operations Routinely open from 6AM 10PM 7 days a week H1 6AM-2PM F1 7AM-3PM (6AM-2PM) F2 2PM-10PM Open 24 hours during flooding 14 hydrologists and hydro-meteorologists (including management) Meteorologists Hydrologists Engineers Geologists
5 Operations Forecast Process 1. Hydrometeorology operations - Precipitation data and forecasts 2. Hydrologic operations River data and forecasts Precipitation estimates and forecasts merged into continuous dataset Precipitation dataset ingested into hydrologic model. Forecasters adjust model parameters in real time River forecast guidance sent to WFO and then to public
6 HAS Operations Hydrometeorology Operations HAS Unit (Hydro-meteorological Analysis and Support) HAS Unit 3 forecasters Create meteorological forcing fields for input into hydrologic model (T, QPE, QPF) Best estimates of past precipitation Forecast precipitation Data QC Text and graphical products (HMD) Weather briefings and discussions in house and with NWS WFOs and public partners
7 HAS Operations Multi-Sensor Quantitative Precipitation Estimates (QPE) Hourly 4km x 4km grid QC of inputs
8 HAS Operations
9 HAS Operations
10 ABRFC HAS Operations Quantitative Precipitation Estimates (QPE) Hourly: Daily:
11 HAS Operations Hydrometeorology Operations Quantitative Precipitation Forecast (QPF) 4km x 4km grid 6 hourly (00, 06, 12, 18 UTC) Up to 120 hours (routinely 48-72) Each RFC inputs different number of periods operationally Guidance forecast issued by the Weather Prediction Center Forecaster at RFC makes adjustments based on local expertise
12 HAS Operations 5 Day Flood Outlook Potential Available on left-hand menu Once per day (morning)
13 Hydrologic Operations Create River Forecasts Apply local expertise to adjust model output Daily forecasts vs. flood forecasts Issue Flash Flood Guidance Development work Calibrate hydrologic model Model new basins and forecast points Develop new operational techniques and procedures
14 Hydrologic Operations River and Flood Forecasts
15 Hydrologic Operations Ensemble Forecasts
16 Hydrologic Operations Flash Flood Guidance Gridded County
17 Recent Changes Arkansas-Red Basin River Forecast Center Internet Products Soil moisture products
18 Hydrologic Operations AHPS Products Inundation mapping (not AHPS but joint with USACE and OK USGS) Up to 90 day probabilistic forecasts for snowmelt situations and water supply users
19 Hydrologic Operations Development Work Probabilistic Forecasts Seamless suite from 1 hour to 2 years Lumped vs. Distributed Increased resolution of model inputs and parameters CHPS/FEWS New modern software architecture Distributed Hydrologic Modeling Increased resolution of model parameters and precipitation inputs Forecast possible at any grid location Hydraulic Modeling Improved routing in complex environments Integral in Flood Inundation Mapping GIS
