FloodS By: Eden Blake Kyle

What is a flood? Flooding is an over flowing of water onto land that is normally dry. Rivers can't hold any more water and they over flow. It covers farms and destroys crops. Water gets in homes and buildings.

Causes of Floods Floods happen when there is too much water. Storms, hurricanes, and even snow can make Floods. A Flood occurs when water flows over areas that are normally dry. Floods happen when water from rivers, lakes, rainstorms, or the ocean covers land that is normally dry. Floods can happen wherever water flows. Floods can even happen in mountains and deserts.
