Based on the rainfall information provided you are asked to evaluate and design a rainwater storage system for a small building with a $10,000-$sf roof in NYC$.$ Please answer the following questions and be sure to show your calculations.

Data should be drawn from page $3$ of the Local Climatological Data report for Central Park under the heading "Normals, Means and Extremes". You will find this document in the Resources folder.

Before sizing the storage, we will need to get answers to the following.

a$.$ What is the annual rainfall in NYC$?$ inches?

b$.$ What is the greatest rain event recorded for $24$ hour? inches?

c$.$ Which month has the most rain and it is inches?

d$.$ Which month has the least rain Ind it is nches?

e$.$ What is the average monthly rainfall in NYC$?$ inches?

How large a tank $($in gallons$)$ will be required if you are asked to capture every drop of rain that falls on the roof? Assume that you can hold all the water from the greatest $24hr$ rain event recorded.

How large a tank $($in gallons$)$ will be required if you are only asked to capture every drop of rain based on monthly total rainfall? Assume that the water is used slowly and you are able to capture all rainfall.
