Gutter and downspout size for Russellville rain
Gutters are sized for the worst few minutes of a storm, not for the year. In Russellville the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 7.80 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 9). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 920 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 1,850, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook.
