Wine (from Latin vinum) is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented grapes. These grapes are generally Vitis vinifera, or a hybrid with Vitis labrusca or Vitis rupestris. Grapes are fermented without the addition of sugars, acids, enzymes, water, or other nutrients.
A flash flood warning (SAME code: FFW) is issued when a flash flood is imminent or occurring in the warned area. A flash flood is a sudden, violent flood after a heavy rain, or occasionally after a dam break. Rainfall intensity and duration, topography, soil conditions, and ground cover contribute to flash flooding. Most flash floods occur when there is a heavy amount of precipitation falling in an area and that water is then channeled through streams or narrow gullies. Flash floods may take minutes or hours to develop. It is possible to experience a flash flood without witnessing any rain.
Although prior ground saturation increases the flash flood risk, many flash floods occur when the ground is not saturated. Flash floods can and do occur with dry soils and drought conditions. Hydrologic influences of the ground surface can have a major impact on the timing, location, and severity of flash flooding.lthough prior ground saturation increases the flash flood risk, many flash floods occur when the ground is not saturated.
