statistical model for predicting water flow based on temperature, day of week, momentum in Excel?












0















I have a time series of amounts of water flowing on a given day and temperatures (both observed and predicted for next days).



I am assuming that the water flow on a next day can be almost fully explained by 3 variables: predicted temperature, day of the week, and momentum (e.g. average water flow over past 5 days).



Which statistical model can I use to predict this?
How do do i build a model like this in Excel?

  • A model where water flows downhill usually works... That said, we can't tell you what statistical model to implement since we have no clue what you're talking about. Once you've figure out what model you need to use, start to implement it, then, if you run into problems, come back and ask questions about your specific problem.
