Modeling Uncertainty and Disclaimer:
This forecast is derived from the CLEVER Model, a hydrologic model using third-party data as inputs. The data may be provisional and may include uncertainty and errors, and the model has its own limitations. This is the so-called modeling uncertainty. As such, the model forecast may also include errors and the actual observed discharges and water levels are different from the forecasts. It is also possible that the actual flow is higher than the forecast upper bound or lower than the forecast lower bound.
