This finding supports the fact that the use of HMR 52 within/without curves <br />is inappropriate in the Cherry Creek: basin due to major differences between the Colorado <br />storms and those used in HMR 52. <br /> <br />Figure 2 depicts the results of evaluating the relationship of cloud wind fields to <br />the resulting storm rainfall pattern in Colorado's most extreme precipitation events. The <br />black: arrow represents the winds steering the motion of the storm cloud while the red <br />arrow represents the direction of most sub-cloud air feeding the storm's development. <br />The resulting rainfall pattern is depicted with green ellipses. This pattern shows the <br />meteorologically consistent and physically possible scenario. <br /> <br />Comparison of Average Within / Without Storm Curves for <br /> <br />Different Study Regions <br />to-Square Mile Area Size <br /> <br />10000 <br /> <br />~.I'll! ~ Il:'-r-., <br /> ~, <br /> ~~ ::::~ ... .... <br /> ~..... ::::~~ <br /> ..... <br /> ..... ~.iIIIl .....~I' <br /> SIlIi ~ <br /> 115!!!!! ..... <br /> ~-.. ~ <br /> .....-..
