These models were utilized to delineate the extent of flooding induced by precipitation from Hurricane Floyd in a portion of Pitt County, North Carolina.  The patterns of flood extent derived from the two models were compared to the extent of flooding indicated on a digital aerial photograph taken two days after peak flood levels had been reached.  In addition, floodplain boundaries based on Federal Emergency Management Agency Q3 maps were compared to the extent of flooding on the aerial photo.  Actual emergency response operations undertaken through the Pitt County Emergency Operations Center during the flood event are described, and are used to provide a context for evaluating the potential utility of these models.  The flood extents produced by the modeling methods performed well at representing the actual extent of the flooding. - Reproduced  aDisasters  aStorms  aCyclones  aWang, Yong  aMulcahy, Karen A.  aEnvironmental Hazards  a50448  c50448d50448  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 2, Issue no: 4pAR50876r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
