Summary The Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Services (AHP Services) provide new forecast products (including visual displays) depicting the magnitude and uncertainty of occurrence for hydrologic events from hours to days to weeks. Existing National Weather Service river forecasts generally provide only short-term (1,2, or 3 day) deterministic forecast products.
... This operational server maintains a current database of meteorological and hydrological data, historical data, and written information generated by the NWS or received from other official sources. In addition, this server accesses in realtime a selection of current official weather observations, forecasts, and warnings from U.S. government sources for use by the national and international community. In an effort to enhance the science, experimental products may be accessible on this server and care must be taken when using such products as they are intended for research use.
This server is available 24 hours a day,seven days a week. Timely delivery of data and products from this server through the Internet is not guaranteed. Official NWS dissemination systems which can provide timely delivery of data and products are listed here: NOAA Weather Radio, NOAA Weather Wire, EMWIN, Family of Services, NOAAPORT and National Weather Service Forecast Office.
The information on government servers are in the public domain, unless specifically annotated otherwise, and may be used freely by the public. Before using information obtained from this server special attention should be given to the date & time of the data and products being displayed. This information shall not be modified in content and then presented as official government material.
The user assumes the entire risk related to its use of this data. NWS is providing this data "as is," and NWS disclaims any and all warranties, whether express or implied, including (without limitation) any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. In no event will NWS be liable to you or to any third party for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special or exemplary damages or lost profit resulting from any use or misuse of this data.
