New York City's annual precipitation is about 45 inches. This includes not only rain, but also snow, hail, etc. Other parts of New York State range above and below this by about 10 inches or so.

New York broke their all-time city one day rainfall record August 14 2011 with up to eight inches of rain. This is the most rain fall they have ever received since record keeping began over 100 hundred years ago.
Miami is typically the least rainy city out of New York, Miami, and Seattle. Seattle tends to have more rainfall due to its location in the Pacific Northwest, while New York can also experience more rain compared to Miami.
To express the 100-year total rainfall for New York City using an exponent, you can represent the average annual rainfall as a base and use a power to indicate the number of years. If the average annual rainfall is, for example, ( R ) inches, the equation would be ( T = R \times 100 ), where ( T ) is the total rainfall over 100 years. Alternatively, if you're focusing on a cumulative growth model, you might use ( T = R \times (1 + r)^{100} ), where ( r ) is the growth rate of rainfall, if applicable.
Yes, Seattle receives copious amounts of rainfall, but contrary to popular belief, it is not especially rainy compared to other cities. New York City, Boston, Atlanta, and Houston all receive more rainfall than Seattle.
