Every river in Canada, drawn only by its own water, every day since Jan 2025. The country thaws: about 46,000 m³/s to the sea in late winter, 244,000 at the June snowmelt peak, a fivefold swing.

By late summer the water in Texas rivers pushes past 30 °C, and almost the whole state warms at once. Every river, every day since Jan 2025: the arid west runs dry for months, year-round flow hugs the east and Gulf.

The @wmo-global.bsky.social Global State of the Water Resources 2024 Report includes a contribution from #ECMWF. We provided data from both ECMWF’s ecLand and Copernicus EMS GloFAS, and 10 other global hydrological modelling systems, to build a global picture of changing river discharge in 2024.🧵

Wow...that is really extreme. :-O So not suprising to see this Glofas map of innundation. Btw also parts of Greece and Turkey suffer from flooding.

Mainland Southeast Asia runs on the monsoon. At the dry-season low it puts ~6,400 m³ into the sea each second; at the monsoon peak, ~207,000, thirty-two times more. Every river breathes with the year.

Every river in Mexico, drawn only by its own water, every day since Jan 2025. About 3,800 m³/s reaches the sea at the end of the dry spring, 57,000 at the October peak, a fifteenfold swing.

Poland's water breathes with the year: the Vistula and Oder swell with the late-winter thaw and spring melt, then thin through the dry summer. Close to 30x more reaches the Baltic at the peak than the deep-winter low. Discharge: @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social GloFAS.

💧 2025 was one of the driest years for global river flows in 35 years.

The latest @wmo-global.bsky.social report draws on data from multiple sources, including the EU Copernicus GloFAS, to assess global water resources and identify regions facing water scarcity and flood risk.

The agreement between the modelled soil moisture from GLOFAS (global-flood.emergency.copernicus.eu/glofas-forec...) and the new Copernicus EUMETSAT Soil Moisture product (land.copernicus.eu/en/products/...) is super good!

Congrats to the developers!!!

Every river in mainland Spain and Portugal, drawn only by its own water, every day since Jan 2025. The peninsula breathes: about 890 m³/s to the sea at the summer low, 33,600 at the Feb 2026 peak, a 38-fold swing.

South Asia's rivers breathe with the monsoon. Before the rains the combined flow to the sea sits near 9,000 m3/s; at the August peak it reaches roughly 209,000, a 23-fold swing in a year. Data: @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social GloFAS.

The State of Global Water Resources 2025 report of the @wmo-global.bsky.social is out now.

ECMWF supported the report’s assessment of river discharge conditions worldwide with river flow data from two global modelling systems: GloFAS and ecLand-CaMa.

California's water breathes with the year: the river network swells through winter storms and Sierra snowmelt, then thins to a thread across the long dry summer. About 13x more at the winter peak than the late-summer low. Discharge: @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social GloFAS.

Brazil at its wet-season peak pours over 400,000 m³ into the sea every second. At the dry-season low, under a third of that. The Amazon carries the bulk, but every river breathes with the year.

GloFAS doesn't really see flash flooding; it's for river flooding. This is the system-estimated 'flood' on the Baltoro glacier in the Karakoram, biggest valley glacier on the planet outside polar regions. That's about a 1:100 historical basis.

K2, second highest mountain on Earth, is just upstream.
