INTRODUCTION
Flood is a disastrous overflow of water from a lake or other body of water due to excessive rainfall or other input of water.

When there is heavy rain, so much water flows in=to the rivers that they come over the tops of their banks and flood the land. This can be useful in many places as the flood carries a lot of silt into the flooded area thereby making that area very good for agriculture. However, if the floods are deep i.e., much, they can be harmful as they can destroy villages, etc… Click here to order the complete first term Basic Science Lesson Note for JSS3
