Dear Authors,
thank you indeed for having so promptly replied to all the referees' comments during the discussion: this is just what we would like to see, but not all authors manage to keep the deadlines and reply timely, so I really appreciate your efforts!
All the Referees, in addition to their constructive comments in the discussion, have provided very positive assessments on the work, rating it as either excellent o good both for the scientific content and the presentation.
In addition, in your replies you have already identified how you plan to deal with the points raised by the referees and I would warmly encourage you to go on with your revision work and submit a new version of the manuscript.
In particular I invite you to deal with two points raised by the Referees and that I consider very important, too: 1) including some quantitative metrics for evaluating the performances over the events; 2) presenting more information on the performances over all the catchments (tables or devising a way to illustrate them with summarizing figures).
I look forward to reading the revised version.
Best regards,
Elena Toth

Dear Authors,
thank you indeed for your careful revision work (and also for the detailed reply letter where you well address all the comments of the Referees). I find the addition of Figure 10 very useful for the readers and the paper, already very clear, will certainly be even more appreciated in this revised version.
best wishes,
Elena Toth
