    The timely and accurate flood forecasting is essential for the reliable flood warming. The effectivness of flood warning is dependent on the forecasting accuracy of certain physical parameters, such ... as the peak magnitude of the flood, its timing, location and duration. The conceptual rainfall - runoff models enable the estimation of these parameters and lead to useful operational forecasts. Some of the Slovenian watersheds are in the phase of setting up of hydrological models with WMS (Watershed Modelling System) software, which integrates digital terrain analysis and hydrological modelling. Model HEC-1 is used for surface runoff simulation. The results of simulations on the Savinja rever basin are ecouraging. In operational use of hydrological forecasting models. the precipitation data and parameters of base flow are required. The input for the rainfall can ve real time rain-gauges data, or weather radar data, or meteorological forecasted precipitation.
