Given The USGS gage at Montague City MA displays the maximum

Given: The USGS gage at Montague City, MA displays the maximum (peak) discharge Q_MAX of the Connecticut River observed each year on the figure shown above. The period of record of the gage extends from 1904 through the present, although the figure stops at 2014, and the figure below shows the watershed. Let\'s look at the hurricane of September 1938 in a simple way to illustrate the steady conservation of water mass. Required: First the watershed. Make a copy of the watershed figure and put a circle on the location of the Montague City gage. Label the Deerfield River on your copy (the largest of the tributaries) and use it to find the gage. Let\'s attribute this peak discharge to precipitation falling on the 4 tributary watersheds just upstream of the Connecticut (the Deerfield. Millers, West, and Ashuelot Rivers). These drain the Berkshires. Green Mountains, and Monadnocks. Label the other three rivers too. Now draw a rough estimate of the watershed area of the four tributaries and use the scale to estimate the area A_Waterhed that generated the 1938 flood maximum, Now the flood. Print out the gage record, and put big circles around Tropical Storm Irene (that\'s recent, and well documented see the CEL Department Office wall or below), our 1938 storm, and the worst, which occurred in the Spring of 1936. Why do you suppose the latter was worse than the 1938 flood? Where does Irene rank? Why do we hear so much about Irene and not so much about the 1936 or 1938 floods? A bit of history. Assume that the Connecticut River is 250 m wide at the Montague City gage, and rectangular in section. Use the attached figures from the 1939 report (note the name in pen on the cover) to estimate the speed of the River in September 1938. Note the bridge. Now the local storm duration and intensity. Equate this
