Snowmelt season is here. While snowmelt is an important water source for hydropower generation, river ecosystems, agriculture, and communities, managing the runoff also comes with challenges. Increased variability and uncertainty in snowpack accumulation and melt means water managers need actionable, timely forecasts to optimize water management and energy generation. 

This webinar will provide important insights for anyone that relies on snowpack for water decision making! Freshset is a key time of year for many of our customers and they are utilizing HydroForecast for everything from hydropower optimization to energy trading to water resource planning.

In this webinar, we’ll walk through how to use HydroForecast to prepare and stay informed about runoff coming this snowmelt season–including:

  • Why HydroForecast is particularly well suited to incorporate accumulated snowpack into flow predictions, both short term and seasonally.
  • Examples of how HydroForecast helps customers prepare for, and respond to, the timing and magnitude of snow melt in their basin.
  • Practical tips for integrating HydroForecast outputs into daily and seasonal decision-making, including forecast exceedance notifications and using forecast confidence intervals to quantify uncertainty for smarter scenario planning.
