Floods 95% of those killed in a flash flood try to outrun the waters along their path rather than climbing rocks or going uphill to higher grounds. Maggie Jones Science Mr. Shepard

Floods are :  Floods are An overflowing of a large amount of water beyond its normal confines and over what is normally dry land: "a flood barrier".

Floods are caused by:  Natural floods are the floods that are caused naturally by the overflow of the huge volume of water, from rivers, lakes, oceans, or by heavy rains or downpours, hurricanes, cyclones, or tsunamis, etc.

Floods can last :  floods normally last from one day to one whole week

When do floods occur: Floods normally occur during the spring when a lot of rain falls or in winter when the snow is melting in vast amounts

What damage can floods cause :
