A flood is where there is too much water in a river, lake, or ground can hold so then the water goes on land and floods the land.
If you don’t know how a flood occurs it occurs when there is to much water in the ground can hold so it over floes.

A flood happens when there is too much rain fall.

A flood can hurt people in many ways they could die drown get cut or get badly injured. The environment can get wrecked in many ways too the animals could die drown or get badly injured. The trees could get knocked down and then they could knock down buildings electricity and leave the place a wreck.
