Differences in the relationships between the mean and standard deviation of regional estimates of skewness for historical flood sequences and the relations derived from several well‐known distribution functions may be explained in terms of spatial or temporal distribution of values of skewness. Unless skewness is large, variations in estimates of skewness for different time periods are unlikely to be ascribable to chance.
