And yes I am savvy enough to konw about flood plains, flood maps and how to use the internet

I'm not sure you understand me Mike. So look at this. https://pubs.usgs.gov/wri/1976/0017/report.pdf

If you go to page 26, any station number starting on 03 is in Western N Carolina. Some of the 02s are too, but the 03 is definite from looking at the maps.

So look down the names of where the stations are, the drainage area, the years of unregulated record, the magnitude of flood in cubic feet per second for 2yr, 5yr, 10, 25, 50, and 100 year intervals. Now look at those. And they include some estimates. Ashville river is about half way down the page, but look at all of the rest of the locations and intervals. Look at how many years of record they've got. This is what I'm talking about.
