HIGH IMPACT SERVICE CONCEPTS for the SOUTHERN REGION RIVER FORECAST CENTERS NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SOUTHERN REGION MIC/HIC CONFERENCE - SERVICE EVOLUTION BREAKOUT SESSIONS - JUNE 2006

MANY IMPACT-BASED RFC SERVICES ALREADY PROVIDED 1 – HURRICANE LIAISON TEAM DEPLOYMENTS 2 – FLASH FLOOD ALERTS 3 – SPECIALIZED BRIEFINGS / TOOLS 4 – SPECIALIZED PRODUCTS / OUTLOOKS 5 – SHARING RESOURCES (KATRINA) 6 – SPECIAL TEAMS (FLOOD, DROUGHTS)

IMPACT-BASED RFC DYNAMIC SERVICE ALLOCATION 1 – SERVICE FOR PEER RFC GROUP (HI) 2 – SERVICE FOR PEER WFO CLUSTER(S) (HI) 3 – BASIC CORE DECISION SUPPORT SERVICES DURING ALL IMPACTS 4 – OTHER SERVICES (NORMAL / NON-IMPACT) 5 – OTHER PARTNERED SERVICES

HIGH IMPACT-BASED DYNAMIC SERVICE ALLOCATION FOR PEER RFC GROUP TWO ASPECTS OR STRATEGIES OF PEER RFC DYNAMIC ALLOCATION 1 – SHARE IMPACTED RFC DUTIES TO PEER RFC 2 – TAKE ON FULL PARTNERING, COLLABORATION SERVICES OF PEER RFC

OFF-LOAD IMPACTED RFC DUTIES TO PEER RFC - TAKE ON BASIC COMMON RFC DUTIES PRECIP ESTIMATION RADAR (MPE) OTHER (MAP, MT MAPPER) QPF TEMPERATURE (FREEZING LEVEL) FORECASTS GRAPHIC PRODUCT CREATION DATA QUALITY CONTROL - THIS FREES UP IMPACTED RFC TO PROVIDE PARTNERED COLLABORATIVE SERVICES

TAKE ON FULL PARTNERING, COLLABORATION DUTIES OF PEER RFC -PROVIDE PARTNERED COLLABORATIVE SERVICES (TWO POSSIBILITIES) 1 VIRTUAL, REMOTE COLLABORATION 2 ON-SITE COLLABORATION THIS DISCUSSION LED TO NEED FOR FORMATION OF NEW SR RFC TEAM TO… 1 FLESH OUT MEANING OF PARTNERED COLLABORATIVE SERVICES, AND 2 FLESH OUT REALISTIC, COMMON SET OF PEER RFC OFFLOADED DUTIES

HIGH IMPACT-BASED DYNAMIC SERVICE ALLOCATION FOR PEER WFO CLUSTER(S) AGAIN,…TWO ASPECTS OR STRATEGIES FOR PEER WFO DYNAMIC ALLOCATION 1 – SHARE IMPACTED WFO DUTIES TO PEER RFC 2 – TAKE ON FULL HYDRO DUTIES OF PEER WFO

SHARE IMPACTED WFO DUTIES TO PEER RFC - MONITOR FLASH FLOOD SITUATION * MPE * DATA QC * FFMP-TYPE PRECIP/FFG COMPARISON * COMPOSE HCM OR “READY-TO-GO” WARNING - ASSUMES * 24/7 PEER RFC DURING ACTIVATION * STANDARD HIGH IMPACT HARDWARE / SOFTWARE UPGRADES * A FEW RFC SOFTWARE UPGRADES (1 DEGREE & PER VOLUME SCAN MPE)

TAKE ON FULL HYDRO DUTIES OF PEER WFO -- PERFORM FLASH FLOOD WARNING MISSION (WATCH?) * MPE * DATA QC * FFMP OR FFMP-TYPE PRECIP/FFG COMPARISON * ISSUE WARNINGS - PERFORM FLOOD WARNING MISSION - ASSUMES * 24/7 PEER RFC DURING ACTIVATION * STANDARD HIGH IMPACT HARDWARE/SOFTWARE UPGRADES * A FEW RFC SOFTWARE UPGRADES (1 DEGREE & PER VOLUME SCAN MPE) * FFMP * ACCESS TO NWR - LED TO DISCUSSION OF PERMANENT CHANGES IN WFO/RFC HYDRO MISSION

HIGH IMPACT COLLABORATION WITH OTHER PARTNERS OPERATIONS - PARTNERED COLLABORATIVE SERVICES HYDROMET DECISION SUPPORT PRODUCT - RESERVOIR MONITORING AND SPECIALIZE FORECASTS - PRE-POSITIONING USGS MEASUREMENT CREWS - PRE-POSITIONING LEVEE SAND-BAGGING OPERATIONS - NAVIGATION TRAFFIC CONTROL / WARNINGS

CORE DECISION SUPPORT SERVICES FOR ALL IMPACTS - COLLABORATION W/GFE (QPF, TEMPERATURE, ETC ) - SHORT TERM ENSEMBLE FORECASTS - PROBABILISTIC FORECASTS - ENSEMBLE RIVER FORECASTS - IMPROVED DETERMINISTIC FORECASTS - RAW MODEL FORECASTS - DISTRIBUTED HYDROLOGIC MODELING

OTHER SERVICES (NORMAL / NON-IMPACT) - SHARE TRAINING RESOURCES - HAND-HOLDING DURING LESS SIGNIFICANT EVENTS - RFC/WFO COLLABORATION WITH MODEL DEVELOPMENT (FINER SCALE SITE-SPECIFIC, HEADWATER FLASH FLOOD BASINS)

OTHER TYPES OF POSITIONS NEEDED IN OFFICE - INFORMATION TECH OFFICER (ITO) - SERVICE COORDINATION HYDROLOGIST - FOR 24/7 OPERATIONS NEED ADDITONAL PERSONNEL FROM WRI

WHERE DO WE GO NOW? - SOME THINGS WE CAN DO NOW SUCH AS TRAINING - INLAND FLOODING COLLABORATIVE SERVICES TEAM - SHARED DUTIES TEAMS (WFO AND RFC) - HIC MEETING PRESENTATION JULY SHARE INFO W/CONOPS IMPLEMENTATION TEAM
