What went well.....•Daily calls with USACE•Collaboration with USACE on long-term projections•Reception of discharge measurements in real-time from USGS•Frequency of measurements on mainstem kept NWS model adjusted•USGS service exemplary (rating extensions, measurements upon request, emergency gage maintenance, RDGs)•Reception of gate changes in real-time from USACE and USBR
Maybe not so well....•Transfer of products hampered by comms issues•Pre-event rating extensions, some worked well, some not•Collaboration on Bismarck forecast troublesome.
