The document analyzes extreme rainfall events in Mumbai, India to determine maximum probable precipitation amounts for different return periods. It describes using the Hershfield technique and Gumbel's extreme value theory to analyze 35 years of rainfall data for Mumbai's Colaba region. Calculations determine the probable maximum precipitation is 604.688036 mm based on past data, and estimate maximum one-day rainfall amounts for return periods from 2 to 100 years.
