What is a flood? A flood occurs when water overflows onto land that is usually dry. This often happens after heavy rain falls faster than the ground can absorb it or when rivers rise over their banks. Even minor floods require monitoring to ensure people and property stay safe from rising water.
Always remember to 'turn around, don't drown' because even shallow-looking moving water can be strong enough to sweep you away.
