In plain language

A moderate flood has occurred in parts of Chile, leading officials to issue a green alert. While the situation is being managed, about one hundred people have needed to move to safer areas.

What is a flood? A flood happens when water overflows onto land that is usually dry. This often occurs when heavy rain falls faster than the ground can soak it up, or when rivers rise above their banks. The extra water flows across the landscape, which can sometimes impact homes and local roads.

Stay away from moving water and never try to walk or drive through flooded streets, as even shallow water can be surprisingly powerful.
