About Event

​Cut through the AI noise. Make better flood decisions.

​As communities prepare for the remainder of hurricane season and an increasingly unpredictable climate, flood forecasting has never been more important, or more challenging.

​Advances in AI, weather models, and hydrologic forecasting are transforming how we anticipate flooding. Yet recent events, from repeated "1,000-year" floods in Texas to increasingly frequent compound flooding along U.S. coastlines, demonstrate that models alone cannot capture the full picture.

​This webinar brings together meteorologists, modelers, and flood experts to explore where today's forecasting tools excel, where they fall short, and why combining predictive models with real-time water observations creates a more complete picture for decision makers.

​What we'll cover:

  • ​What forecasters are seeing this season from El Niño

  • ​Where AI models excel, and where they fall short

  • ​Why decision makers need real-time, localized observational data

  • ​Q&A — Ask questions as we go

​This session is meant for:

​Floodplain managers, emergency management professionals, transportation and public works officials, meteorologists, and resilience planners looking to understand AI capabilities and shortfalls in weather and flood forecasting.
