Abstract SYNOPSIS Three precipitation stations, widely separated and manned by cooperative weather observers, are utilized to predict the flood-time discharge of Bear River, a Utah-Wyoming-Idaho stream whose watershed coven 2,900 square miles. From precipitation data available at the end of January a prediction can be made, according to the author, as to whether the flood period of March–July will be high or low as compared with the average; at the end of February a verification or modification of the January prediction can be made; at the end of March an approximation of the quantity of the run-off in day second-feet may be ventured; and at the end of April a quantity estimate can be given which will no doubt closely approach the actual flood-period run-off. From a developed relation of flood and nonflood period run-off, it is also claimed to be possible to predict in advance the run-off during the non-flood period. Only quantity forecasts are attempted, no effort being made to state the form of run-off ...
