    b) Seattle

    Explanation:

    The discrepancy can be estimated by subtracting the value of the NARR estimates from that of the mean annual precipitation. Mathematically, we have:

    Seattle:

    Discrepancy = | 94.31 - 104.36 | = 10.05

    Tucson:

    Discrepancy = | 30.27 - 31.88 | = 1.61

    Atlanta:

    Discrepancy = | 126.33 - 120.41 | = 5.92

    Therefore, based on the calculations above, it can be concluded that the city with the highest discrepancy is Seattle. The correct option is option b.
