SWMM SCS Storm Distributions

SWMM SCS Storm Distributions

(OP)
Hello there,

Anyone know of a way to have SWMM5 use SCS rainfall distributions?  Right now, it's a two program process for me: generate and run the meteorologic model in HEC-HMS, view the rainfall in a time-series table, copy the table over to a rain gage in SWMM.  Sound right?  Is there a faster, non-HMS involving way?

Thanks!

Yes - use a spreadsheet for the distributions. See attachment link for I, IA, II, and III. Very quick procedure...

tsgrue, I thought you'd be the one to respond based on the other forums in here with your well-reasoned posts.  Thanks so much for sharing the spreadsheet!  I had googled for something like that without success...much appreciated.
