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 their banks. Because water always flows downhill, it quickly collects in low-lying areas, sometimes covering roads and entering buildings.
If you see water on the road, remember: 'Turn around, don't drown.' Even shallow-looking water can be surprisingly deep and very powerful.
