Floods, after Heavy Rainfall

 

Floods / flooding occur when water overflows on the surface of the earth.

Overflowing water submerges the land, which is usually dry.

Flooding is common in areas that experience heavy rainfall.

It limits human activities as overflowing water makes roads impassable and destroys critical infrastructure like electricity pole connections and the water and sewerage networks. 

It is usually a temporary occurrence, as the water levels reduce when the rain quantity reduces. 

A good solution for the effects of floods involves developing high-quality and effective drainage systems in the neighborhood.
