Maximum Probable Floods on Pennsylvania Streams
A method, with supporting data, for estimating the maximum probable flood from drainage areas of 100 to 6,000 sq miles is presented in this paper. A maximum storm is derived for various seasons and regions of the state from a study of the records of past storms in Eastern United States. The flood hydrographs caused by 100% runoff from this storm on various sizes of a standard watershed are estimated, and means are developed for correcting these hydrographs to give the corresponding flow from an actual watershed.
