For a 60-year record of precipitation intensities and durations, a 30-min intensity of 2.50 in./hr was equaled or exceeded a total of 85 times. All but 5 of the 60 years experienced one or more 30-min intensities equaling or exceeding the 2.50-in./hr value. Use the Kimball formula to determine the return period of this intensity using (a) a partial-duration series and (b) an annual series.
