National Weather Service
1 reportThe National Weather Service is NOAA’s operational weather agency for the United States, issuing forecasts, watches, warnings, and hydrologic information. Its work uses radar, satellites, surface observations, numerical models, and local forecast offices.
The practical and scientific questions around National Weather Service span river forecasting, while also considering public weather data and weather forecasts. The account compares forecast verification and post-event assessments to determine which claims about river forecasting are directly supported; uncertainty persists because forecast skill varies by hazard, lead time, and local observing coverage.
