| description abstract | This paper summarizes methods and results for a recent precipitation frequency study of the Kansas City metropolitan area. The study was motivated by prevalent concern that frequency estimates used for hydrologic design and analysis are based on studies published decades ago. Data currently used for design were extracted from National Weather Service (NWS) rainfall atlases TP-40 and HYDRO-35, published in 1961 and 1977, respectively. Results of this study are compared to those two atlases and a third regional study published by Huff and Angel in 1992. In general, the rainfall depths predicted by this study are higher than TP-40 and HYDRO-35 for return periods longer than | |
