What is a flood? A flood happens when water covers land that is usually dry. This often occurs when heavy rain falls faster than the ground can soak it up or when rivers overflow. In desert regions, sudden rain can turn dry paths into flowing streams very quickly, which is why these events are closely watched.
Never walk or drive through floodwater, as even shallow moving water can be strong enough to sweep people or vehicles away.
