FORECASTS AND ALERTS
The Truth Behind the Headlines
EuroTempest Storm and Flood Alerts provide management teams with the earliest and most reliable warning of impending events. Based on a range of weather forecast models which are continually monitored by our meteorologists, automatic alerts are issued if we detect conditions across the UK or Europe which are likely to affect you. So if an event is going to impact your business, we know about it first. And if it is NOT going to impact your business, we know that first too.
PLANNING OPERATIONS
Be Proactive Not Reactive
EuroTempest’s Operational Forecasts are unique in providing clients with a quantitative estimate of the impact that serious weather conditions will have on their business. As an example, our insurance impact forecasts are provided up to 5 days ahead of a developing condition and indicate the timing, expected number, location and cost of insurance claims. For major events these forecasts are critical in helping senior management determine the resource implications, helping the team get ahead of the game and enabling them to support customers more effectively. In the UK our Loss/Claims Forecasts now cover 6 million properties with a total sum insured of £1trn, representing around 40% of the UK market.
FLOOD ALERTS
Advanced Warnings
The EuroTempest Flood Risk Alert Service is designed specifically for the insurance sector and provides operational teams with advanced notice of serious flooding events. Based on the company’s proprietary models, coupled with data from agencies across the UK, the service provides early warning of locations at risk of flooding, up to 5 days ahead.
The alerts are based on the EuroTempest Flood Risk Index which is calculated daily based on developing conditions, taking into account insurance exposure. As a result the Flood Risk Alerts provide the most relevant and reliable warnings to the industry, giving insurers the opportunity to prepare their response and put in place mitigating measures.
FLOOD FORECAST DASHBOARD
Real-time Updates on Developing Flood Conditions
The EuroTempest Flood Forecast Dashboard has been developed to give operational teams the best live data on where flooding is likely to occur across the UK. It brings together, in one location, all the information needed to form a view and take decisions. As well as providing a high-resolution forecast of where flood damage is likely to occur it also shows minute-by-minute updates on the situation during ongoing flooding so that operational teams can understand when conditions might improve sufficiently for clean-up operations and repairs to begin.
