We just finished watching Morse from one through thirty-three here in Japan over 8 months. So, for the Remorseful Day, we had a little sayonara party for the inspector, Lewis and strange Strange. Well, the thing that I didn't like about the final string of episodes was the change in Lewis's character. He used to be so easy going and Morse's idiosyncrasies never bothered him at all.
1 Wet or saturated soil. 2  Saturated soil can't absorb rain and water from melting snow. 3  The excess water becomes runoff that rapidly flows into rivers and streams. 4  Unsaturated soil acts like a sponge, absorbing some of the water from rain or snow melt. 5  Saturated soil by itself does not cause flooding. Frozen ground. 2  Frozen soil can not absorb as much water as unfrozen soil. 3  Rain or rapid snow melt atop frozen soil can cause flooding that wouldn't have occurred if the soil were not frozen. 4  Wet or saturated soil. 5  Saturated soil can't absorb rain and water from melting snow.
When the discharge of a river increases, the channel may become completely full. Any discharge above this level will result in the river overflowing its banks and causing a flood. The stage at which the river will overflow its banks is called bankfull stage or flood stage. For example, the flood stage of the Mississippi River at New Orleans is 17 feet. Discharge that produces a stage over 17 feet will result in the water nearing the top of the levee with potential flooding of the city of New Orleans (the top of the levee is actually at 25 feet above sea level).
