This study presents the development of a statistical flash flood risk index model, which is currently operating in research mode for flash flood risk forecasting in ungauged mountainous areas. The grid-based statistical flash flood risk index, with temporal and spatial resolutions of 1 h and 1 km, respectively, has been developed to simulate the flash flood risk index leading to flash flood casualties using hourly rainfall, surface flow, and soil water content in the previous 6 h. The statistical index model employs factor analysis and multi-linear regression to analyze its gridded hydrological components that are obtained from the TOPMODEL-based Land Atmosphere Transfer Scheme (TOPLATS). The performance of the developed index model has been evaluated in estimating flash flooding in ungauged mountain valleys and small streams. Numerical results show that the approach simulated 38 flash flood catastrophes in the Seoul Capital Region with 71% accuracy; therefore, this approach is potentially adequate for flash flood risk forecasting.
