Abstract
This HydroShare resource compiles presentation materials and supporting resources for the CIROH Hydrological Briefing & Outlook conducted during Water Year 2026.
The collection includes:
- Monthly briefing slides (PDF format) presented during the CIROH Consortium Monthly Calls
- An Excel file summarizing key resources, including descriptions and access links
These briefings provide a national overview of hydrological conditions across the United States, including:
- Recent hydrological hazards and Local Storm Reports (LSRs)
- Precipitation, and streamflow conditions
- River flood outlooks and short-range forecasts
- Emerging risks driven by extreme weather and seasonal transitions
This resource is designed to:
- Familiarize early career scientists and trainees with operational hydrological products, including forecasts, outlooks, and national-scale monitoring tools.
- Support Research-to-Operations-to-Research (R2X) within CIROH, by connecting briefing materials with emerging tools, datasets, and workflows
- Highlight and introduce CIROH capabilities for water resources applications, through practical examples used in monthly national briefings
- Provide concrete use cases of operational data integration, including precipitation forecasts, flood outlooks, snow information, and drought monitoring

WY2026 CIROH Hydrological Briefing & Outlook Overview This resource provides a curated collection of materials supporting the CIROH Hydrological Briefing & Outlook for Water Year 2026. The content compiles monthly presentation slides, operational resources, and CIROH-developed tools used to assess national hydrological conditions and support situational awareness. Slides included in this resource are presented during the CIROH Consortium Monthly Calls. Contents 1. Monthly Briefing Slides: PDF slides for each monthly briefing Covering recent conditions, forecasts, and emerging hydrological risks 2. Operational Resources (Excel): A structured list of national datasets and tools, including: * Local Storm Reports (LSR) * Precipitation and snowfall forecasts * Flood and drought outlooks * National Water Prediction Service (NWPS) * USGS streamflow monitoring dashboard 3. CIROH Projects (Excel): CIROH-related efforts contributing to briefing content: * Cold region hydrology and river ice monitoring * Event-based model evaluation (e.g., HRRR performance) * FIMserv – Quick flood inundation mapping (HAND-FIM) * DeepSAR Flood Mapper – SAR-based flood extent mapping * FIMEval – Flood inundation mapping evaluation Purpose and Use This resource is designed to: - Familiarize early career scientists and trainees with operational hydrological products, including forecasts and national-scale monitoring tools - Support Research-to-Operations-to-Research (R2X) within CIROH by linking research tools with operational applications - Showcase CIROH capabilities for water resources, through real examples used in national briefings - Demonstrate integration of operational datasets, including precipitation forecasts, flood outlooks, snow information, and drought monitoring Applications The materials can be used for: - Training and onboarding of early career researchers - Supporting national or regional hydrological briefings - Exploring operational datasets and tools - Demonstrating CIROH research applications in real-world scenarios Notes: - Links provided point to external operational products (NOAA, USGS, etc.) and CIROH-related tools - Content is updated periodically as part of the monthly briefing workflow
