The emergence of high water is extreme hydrological phenomena defined by an unusually high water level, flow or volume of water at a certain place at a certain time period. Causes and consequences of flooding is usually not be predicted, but can be mitigated. The consequences of floods vulnerability of human lives and material goods, huge damage, involvement of a large number of people and resources in the field, social insecurity of the population, etc. This paper will analyze the trend and the possible causes of high water, as well as the analysis included the maximum flood waves that have emerged in the last 30 years, based on daily streamflow levels and flow at the dam profile of multipurpose reservoir Modrac and information on the movement of temperature changes in the multipurpose reservoir Modrac for the period from 1984. It also analyzes the layout and the amount of precipitation in the observed catchment area for the past 30 years. Also, climate change is having a major impact on the amount of water in the reservoir as well as the appearance of large flood waves. One of the key elements for monitoring climate changes is temperature changes. Even slight changes in temperature affect the distribution of precipitation throughout the year, and the amount of precipitation.
