Modeling 10 day snow melt
Modeling 10 day snow melt
(OP)
Anyone know how to correctly model the 10-day 100-yr snow melt with HydroCAD?
I have set up my model with storm type as the Spillway 1-day 10 day, duration for 240 hrs, and adjusted my AMC to be 4 (using Atlas 14 rainfall). This still indicates that I would be getting infiltration out of my basin though. Does anyone know if this model is correct? Maybe all I just need to manual remove the exfiltration outlet every time I run the model.
Thanks

RE: Modeling 10 day snow melt
You can use this option with any rainfall distribution you choose, such as a Type II 24-hour. But the spillway distribution really isn't intended for this purpose.
It would help to know the purpose of your calculations. Perhaps others have dealt with a similar situation.
