A flood is a natural rising of level of water in an area that is usually dry.
Floods normally occur when there is too much rain in an area. In most cases floods are caused by monsoon rains. When typhoons occur, monsoon
rains are even strengthened, causing more devastating floods in areas near rivers and seas.

But in some cases, floods are caused by the clogging of waterways. When there is too much garbage in the drainage systems, water could not pass
freely. As a result, flooding occurs. Flood occurs in some places, because there aren't enough trees to hold the water coming down from mountains,
So water slides down freely from mountains down to the valleys or plains and floods the land.
Floods can be dangerous. Flood water can carry germs and bacteria that cause diseases.

Some floods cause landslides and mudslide that destroy
properties and claim lives. Floods can also destroy crops in large areas of land. This results in shortage of food supply
When this happens, crops and properties are damaged.
