Frequency of Excessive Rainfalls in Florida
A study of one aspect of the excessive rainfalls recorded at five locations in Florida is presented herein. This paper illustrates the empirical expressions which relate the intensity and frequency of occurrence of heavy rains of short duration. The method of analysis and the presentation of results follow those established in similar studies from other localities; A comparison is drawn with a study made in 1935. It is seen that only minor changes are necessary in applying the results of this previous work, even though the present study has lengthier records from which to draw.
