ABRFC Significant Flood OutlookThe Significant Flood Outlook Potential identifies areas where significant river flooding is possible, likely or imminent up to five days in the future. ABRFC defines significant river flooding as flooding in the moderate, major, or record flood categories. In general, flooding of moderate category or greater will result in conditions that adversely affect roads, residential, commercial, industrial, and/or agricultural areas and may require evacuation of people and/or livestock.This graphic will not depict minor river flooding as this implies only minimal or no property damage with possibly some public inconvenience. The FOP is not intended to depict all small-scale events such as localized flooding and/or flash flooding. Please refer to products issued by local NWS offices for official river forecasts and warnings. The FOP comes in two scales -- National and RFC-wide.
