What would happen to the rivers and streams if 50inches of snow melts in a two day period?
I highly doubt that 50 inches of snow will completely melt in 2 days. If this is a hypothetical question, then it will depend on a few other things, such as how large the watersheds are, what the snow water equivalent (SWE) is, the topography of the watershed, and the current stage of the rivers and streams. But in general, there would be some major flooding of the rivers.
