Huff vs. SCS
Huff vs. SCS
(OP)
The SCS and Huff rainfall distributions produce significantly different peak discharges for the same drainage area. It seems to me that the SCS distribution is overly conservative for most storm sewer/detention basin designs. Does anyone know of any publication or data that may suggest which to use? Thanks.
