A flood which is caused by heavy or excessive rainfall in a short period of time, generally less than 6 hours Also, at times a dam failure can cause a flash flood, depending on the type of dam and time period during which the break occurs
Follows a situation in which rainfall is so intense and severe and runoff so rapid that it precludes recording and relating it to stream stages and other information in time to forecast a flood condition (FEMA definition) See also flood
