Flash flood is an extreme type of flood that is categorized within the fast kinds of riverine floods. The âflashâ attached to the term refers to its rapid effect. This type of flood is found to be the result of the convective moisture from the air or waters, like rain and snow that fall from the sky.
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.
