Hi,

Does a 24 hour SFWMD rainfall distribution exist? I can only find the 72 hour SFWMD distribution and ICPR only has the 72 hour storm.

Thanks.

Are you looking for a specific data set from that jurisdiction?

Yeah, he is.

gjeppesen, you should be able to find your answer somewhere in here:


If you can't, I know it's on page 83 of the old August 2000 edition of the ERP BOR. Email me and I'll send you a copy of the old BOR. It was a little weird. They gave you a cumulative rainfall table 72 hours long, but instead of summing to 100% it summed to 135.9%, with 35.9% of it falling the first two days and the remaining "100%" falling in the third day. So their 24 hour distribution was just the third day of the 72 hour distribution.
