From historical data, it was found that the rainfall received by Kerala in the month of August was normally distributed with a mean of 1,600 mm and a standard deviation of 400 mm. Let’s suppose that floods are caused when the rainfall in August exceeds 2,400 mm. What is the probability that the state would experience a flood?

t was calculated that the floods were caused by a rainfall of 2,200 mm. Based on the given information, what is the probability that the state will receive more than 2,200 mm of rainfall in this period?3.5%4.8%1.2%6.7%

Now, let's suppose the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) wants to start evacuating people from low-lying regions if the rainfall in August exceeds 2,000 mm. What is the probability that the NDMA would undertake evacuation activities? (µ = 1,600 mm and σ = 400 mm)

A house you’re interested in buying would be affected by 20-year floods. What is the probability of that happening in any given year?

Kerala, which lies in the tropic region, is mostly subject to the type of humid tropical wet climate experienced by most of Earth's rainforests. As per Köppen climate classification, it belongs to the category of Tropical monsoon climate[4] Meanwhile, its extreme eastern fringes experience a drier tropical wet and dry climate. Kerala receives an average annual rainfall of 3107 mm – some 7,030 crore m3 of water. This compares to the all-India average is 1,197 mm. Parts of Kerala's lowlands may average only 1250 mm annually while the cool mountainous eastern highlands of Idukki district – comprising Kerala's wettest region – receive in excess of 5,000 mm of orographic precipitation (4,200 crore of which are available for human use) annually. Kerala's rains are mostly the result of seasonal monsoons. As a result, Kerala averages some 120–140 rainy days per year. In summer, most of Kerala is prone to gale-force winds, storm surges, and torrential downpours accompanying dangerous cyclones coming in off the Indian Ocean. Kerala's average maximum daily temperature is around 37 °C; the minimum is 19.8 °C.
