MDL’s Extratropical Storm Surge An Introduction Anne Kramer Scientific Programmer NOAA/NWS/OST/MDL & TCA

ETSS background ETSS model is based on SLOSH, but modified to use GFS winds on 1° grid Runs 4x daily in NCEP operations Basins updated at MDL’s discretion; updates: –Alaska, Bering Sea: 1996 –Alaska, Arctic: 1998 –Gulf of Alaska: 2008 –East Coast: 1999, 2008 –Gulf of Mexico: 1999, 2011 –West Coast: 1998, 2011

ETSS background Resolution varies –Gulf of Mexico ~ 4km –East Coast ~ 9.4km –Alaska ~ 6.7km –West Coast ~ 6.5km Each run has a 2 day initialization and a 4 day forecast period, for a total of 6 days Results posted to the web – (text & hydrographs) – ST.expr/DF.gr2/DC.ndgd/GT.slosh/ (gridded data) ST.expr/DF.gr2/DC.ndgd/GT.slosh/ – GE_GOM_EAST/SURGE_GOM_EAST_96 _HR.shtml (gridded) GE_GOM_EAST/SURGE_GOM_EAST_96 _HR.shtml

MDL’s Participation in SURA Inundation Testbed Effort Completed –Uploaded to SURA server: archived forecast graphs and text files for north East Coast stations for the 3 periods of interest Projected –Reproduce gridded forecasts using archived GFS wind data –Potentially create gridded hindcasts using reanalysis GDAS winds
