A flood is caused by a combination of heavy rainfall. causing river / oceans to over flow their banks, and can. happen at any time of the year, not just in the winter. Floods generally develop over a period of. days, when there is too much rainwater to fit. in the rivers and water spreads over the land.
Surprisingly, ice forming in a pipe does not typically cause a. break where the ice blockage occurs. Itâs not the radial expan-. sion of ice against the wall of the pipe that causes the break. Rather, following a complete ice blockage in a pipe, continued. freezing and expansion inside the pipe causes water pressure. to increase downstream -- between the ice blockage and a. closed faucet at the end.
