Abstract In 2014, a cloudburst hit Malmo City and parts of the city were severely flooded. In this study, we assess the possibility to forecast this event by high-resolution ensemble rainfall-runoff modelling. Meteorological reforecasts are generated by the convection-permitting HarmonEPS model and the hydrological response is simulated by the HYPE model. Although the meteorological forecasts manage to reproduce the observed extreme rainfall intensities, due to location errors only a weak, low-probability signal of a high runoff in Malmo City is obtained in direct forecasts. To describe and visualize the spatial uncertainty of local rainfall extremes in forecasts, and construct hydrological model forcing representing “worst-case ensembles”, an approach called Distance-Dependent Depth-Duration in Forecasts (4DF) is proposed. In this approach, a depth-duration analysis is combined with a neighborhood approach to describe rainfall severity as a function of distance from the basin. The results demonstrated the applicability of the approach for improved situation awareness. |
