    • 20-year return period points have been added (purple points) 
    • The dynamic reporting points algorithm has been completely rewritten following the discussions with DISS and the JRC. The new algorithm has clear goals and is simpler and well understood. 
    • Reporting points thresholds have been updated to be more coherent and in line with the notification rules 
    • A new Probability persistence layer has been added, allowing users to better understand how reporting points are created 
    • Minor changes in the overview table in the reporting points pop-up window
  • Improvements to the EFAS entries on the Climate Data Store (CDS):

    • It is now possible to subset the geographical area when downloading EFAS data, by providing a set of coordinates within the EFAS domain. This allows users to request data only for their area of interest and consequently reduces the file sizes downloaded. 

    • The following variables are now available for download on the EFAS entries in netCDF format: upstream area, elevation, soil depth, wilting point, and field capacity. Users can select the version of these variables appropriate for the version of EFAS forecasts they are accessing. 

  • Calibration of post-processing station models performed for all stations fulfilling requirements. An additional 398 stations are now post-processed. 
  • New EFAS web layers:
    • New Layers: 
      • ERIC Notification Points
      • Flood probability persistence
      • Social Media Activity Analysis - The layer aggregates signals about floods in a specific area from Social Media (Twitter API streaming).
        • The most representative tweets are currently in a separate layer named "Social Media Activity Analysis - Tweets"
    • New Features:
      • EFAS Informal feedback collection
      • Sharing to Social Media from Dashboard - adds a new "Share" button on each dashboard widget, which allows sharing what is currently visible in the widget to social media
  • Significant updates to our CEMS-Flood documentation; introducing our new ‘CEMS-Flood Service User Guide’, which includes information on data access, data catalog/structure/formats, guides on how to work with CEMS-Floods data, and more. Please note the new web address of the EFAS and GloFAS wikis has changed to: https://confluence.ecmwf.int/display/CEMS/CEMS-Flood
