Hindcasting flooding from Tropical Cyclones using
SFINCS

Houston, Texas
Hurricane Harvey (2017)
~1500 mm
Hindcast of pluvial, fluvial, and coastal flood damage in Houston,
Texas during Hurricane Harvey (2017) using SFINCS
5
- 25m grid
- 3 streamflow inputs
- 1 coastal input
SFINCS tends to overpredict peak water levels by 0.8 meters.
6
High-Water Marks
A large portion of residential damage is estimated to occur in areas
far from the mapped floodplain.

Extreme rainfall from topical
cyclones can led to significant
uninsured losses.
Areas with high rates of flooded
structures are particularly
vulnerable populations.
Continued work in Houston

‱ Using model results to assess
climate vulnerability and
household adaptation

Model Validation
How well is the model routing water across the terrain?
How well is the model capturing peak water levels?
Is the model predicting flooding at the right locations?
How well is the model routing
water across the terrain?
16
Average MAE: 1.36
Average RMSE: 1.60
17
Observed minus Modeled
How well is the model routing
water across the terrain?
How well are we capturing peak water levels?
18
Is the model
predicting
flooding at
the right
locations?
19
Miss
False Alarm
Correct Non-
forecasts
“Hit” if modeled
max depth
> 0.15 m
Probability of detection = 0.91
False alarm rate = 0.49
Success ratio = 0.51
Critical success index = 0.48
20
Observations:
- Wind is an important driver of flooding in estuarine communities
- Assessing models for predicting pluvial flooding is challenging but
important when considering damage estimation
Final Steps:
- Representing channel bathymetry + finer subgrid resolution
- Publish!
Future Work:
- Estimate damages from TCs under future conditions
- Create database of historical flooding
- Use to inform risk and vulnerability assessments

DSD-INT 2022 Academic compound flood modelling in the USA - Grimley

  • 1. Academic compound flood modelling in the USA Assessing Compound Flooding from Tropical Cyclones in Texas and the Carolinas Lauren Grimley, PhD Candidate UNC Flood Hazards Lab | Department of Earth, Marine and Environmental Sciences Delft3D User Days November 16, 2022
  • 2. Changing Coasts and Floodplains 2 Photo: Avery Smith Photo: Avery Smith Photo: Chuck Burton
  • 3. Flood hazard estimates neglect pluvial and compound flood mechanisms. Storm Sewer or Groundwater Surcharge Precipitation Streamflow Storm Surge Photo: AP Photo/Steve Helber 3
  • 4. Hindcasting flooding from Tropical Cyclones using SFINCS 4 Houston, Texas Hurricane Harvey (2017) ~1500 mm
  • 5. Hindcast of pluvial, fluvial, and coastal flood damage in Houston, Texas during Hurricane Harvey (2017) using SFINCS 5 - 25m grid - 3 streamflow inputs - 1 coastal input
  • 6. SFINCS tends to overpredict peak water levels by 0.8 meters. 6 High-Water Marks
  • 7. A large portion of residential damage is estimated to occur in areas far from the mapped floodplain. 7 Within FEMA Floodplain Across SFINCS Domain
  • 8. T HE UN IV E RSIT Y OF N ORT H CAROLIN A AT CHAP E L HILL 8 Extreme rainfall from topical cyclones can led to significant uninsured losses. Areas with high rates of flooded structures are particularly vulnerable populations.
  • 9. Continued work in Houston ‱ Model improvements ‱ Incorporate channel bathymetry ‱ Subgrid application (Deltares) ‱ Using model results to assess climate vulnerability and household adaptation
  • 10. Hindcasting pluvial flooding from Tropical Cyclones using SFINCS 10 North and South Carolina Hurricane Florence (2018) ~750 mm
  • 11. Validating SFINCS from inland to the coast Ocracoke 80m grid w/ 4m subgrid
  • 12. Model Inputs and Scenarios 12 USGS Discharge/Stage NOAA/ADCIRC Coastal Water Levels MRMS radar-rainfall Ocean Weather wind
  • 13. Surge Only Surge + Streamflow Surge + Streamflow + Wind + Rain The contribution of different flood mechanisms varies from inland to the coast
  • 14. The contribution of different flood mechanisms varies from inland to the coast New Bern, NC Jacksonville, NC
  • 15. 15 Model Validation How well is the model routing water across the terrain? How well is the model capturing peak water levels? Is the model predicting flooding at the right locations?
  • 16. How well is the model routing water across the terrain? 16 Average MAE: 1.36 Average RMSE: 1.60
  • 17. 17 Observed minus Modeled How well is the model routing water across the terrain?
  • 18. How well are we capturing peak water levels? 18
  • 19. Is the model predicting flooding at the right locations? 19 Miss False Alarm Correct Non- forecasts “Hit” if modeled max depth > 0.15 m Probability of detection = 0.91 False alarm rate = 0.49 Success ratio = 0.51 Critical success index = 0.48
  • 20. 20 Observations: - Wind is an important driver of flooding in estuarine communities - Assessing models for predicting pluvial flooding is challenging but important when considering damage estimation Final Steps: - Representing channel bathymetry + finer subgrid resolution - Publish! Future Work: - Estimate damages from TCs under future conditions - Create database of historical flooding - Use to inform risk and vulnerability assessments Email: Lauren.Grimley@unc.edu Twitter: @_LaurenGrimley
