Floods of July 18, 1942 in north-central Pennsylvania, with a section on descriptive details of the storm and floods Floods of July 18, 1942 in north-central Pennsylvania, with a section on descriptive details of the storm and floods

The floods of July 1942 in north-central Pennsylvania and adjacent areas in New York were record-breaking on most of the smaller streams. They followed unprecedented rains that amounted to as much as 35 inches at some points during a storm that for the most part lasted less than 12 hours at any point. In the area of heavy rainfall, peak flood discharges were much greater than for the...

Water resources of southeastern Bucks County, Pennsylvania Water resources of southeastern Bucks County, Pennsylvania

This report has been prepared as a contribution to the development of southeastern Bucks County, Pa. It summarizes available information on the water resources of this 90-square mile area and evaluates current supplies. Future development of the area may change both the available quantity and the quality of the water supply. The effective development of the area demands a continuing...

Ground-water problems in the Philadelphia area [Pennsylvania] Ground-water problems in the Philadelphia area [Pennsylvania]

Large quantities of ground water are used by the Philadelphia Naval Base and many industries in south Philadelphia, as well as by municipalities near Philadelphia in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The areal contact between unconsolidated sand, gravel, and clay strata of the Atlantic Coastal Plain and consolidated rocks of the Piedmont province extends in a northeast-southwest line...

Major winter and nonwinter floods in selected basins in New York and Pennsylvania Major winter and nonwinter floods in selected basins in New York and Pennsylvania

The scientific design of flood-control works is based on an evaluation of the hydrologic factors basic to flood events, particularly how rainfall and snow runoff, soil conditions, and channel influences can combine to produce greater or lesser floods. For this purpose an analysis of the pertinent hydrologic data is needed. The methods of analysis adopted should conform as closely as...

The floods of March 1936, Part 3, Potomac, James, and upper Ohio Rivers The floods of March 1936, Part 3, Potomac, James, and upper Ohio Rivers

During the period March 9-22, 1936, there occurred in close succession over the northeastern United States, from the James and upper Ohio River Basins in Virginia and Pennsylvania to the river basins of Maine, two extraordinarily heavy storms, in which the precipitation was almost entirely in the form of rain. The depths of rainfall mark this period as one of the greatest concentrations...
