European Flood Awareness System

The European Flood Awareness System (EFAS) is a service that monitors weather and river data across Europe to predict potential flooding events. It analyzes forecasts days in advance, providing early warnings to help authorities and communities prepare and respond effectively. EFAS combines meteorological information, hydrological models, and historical data to assess flood risk, aiming to reduce damage, save lives, and enhance resilience against floods across the continent.
