Awesome thanks for the tips. Yeah the one thing that makes this a little weird is that the detailed section uses some regional analysis USACE did in the 70’s and it produces flows way higher than what StreamStats does (USGS SIR 2008-5102 [PA]). The FIS also says they used SIR 2008-5102 in the approximate areas. I’m just not sure how they meshed the two sections together seeing as the flows are drastically different. My initial plan for it all was to use the StreamStats at the upstream end then bump up the flow towards the downstream end and use the wsel from the detailed FEMA section as my DS end conditions. Those end conditions are based on flows that are a lot higher than StreamStats though.
I was thinking of just taking the conservative approach and using the detailed area flow through my reach, and will probably just stick with it hearing your thoughts. Maybe I’ll do an alternative model run with StreamStats and normal depth end condition as a point of comparison.
Thank again.
