National Water Model Hydrograph
Official NWS streamflow forecasts are produced by NWS hydrologic forecasters for river gauge locations using hydrologic models which are calibrated to that location. This process considers additional guidance and information, including local expertise and experience, to produce the best forecast possible. The NWM output provides supplemental guidance to NWS forecasters and should not be considered an official NWS river forecast.
Flood Impacts
- 17 - expect major bank erosion and flooding of low-lying property and roads adjacent to the river and tributary creeks. Damage to some bridges and portions of the hood river railroad is a possibility. Irrigation canals and headworks will likely be inundated and damaged by floodwater and debris.
- 16 - expect significant riverbank erosion and flooding of low-lying roads and property adjacent to the river and tributary creeks. Portions of the Hood River Railroad may be threatened by bank erosion and undercutting due to the turbulent and fast-flowing water. Irrigation canals and headworks adjacent to the river and tributaries may be inundated with floodwater and debris.
- 15 - expect flooding of some low-lying roads and property adjacent to the river and tributary creeks, along with significant bank erosion. Floodwater and debris may inundate portions of irrigation canals along the river and tributary creeks.
