National Weather Service to host focus groups

In partnership with the National Weather Service, Nurture Nature Center will host two focus groups in the Four Corners about flood and river forecast products.

A session for emergency management and water resource professionals will be held from 10 a.m. to noon Monday at Durango Public Library, 1900 East Third Ave.

A session for residents will be held at 6 p.m. Monday at the library. Participants will be paid $50.

These focus groups are part of a social science research study funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to improve river forecasting. Participants will be asked to answer questions and provide feedback about various forecast products.

Participants can register at www.focusonfloods.org. For more information, contact Rachel Hogan Carr at rhogan@nurturenature.org or (610) 253-4432, ext. 101.
