Gutter and downspout size for César Chávez rain
What overwhelms a gutter is a burst, not a season. In César Chávez the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 9.37 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 11). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 770 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 1,540, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook.
