Mean = 550 cfs, median = 550 cfs, standard deviation = 300 cfs. Use an annual series and the definition of frequency in a frequency analysis to determine the magnitude of the 4-year flood. Compare this historical value with the analytical 4-year flood obtained by assuming floods follow a normal distribution.
