Flash floods are happening more often in many countries, including Argentina, Spain, Indonesia, and Saudi Arabia. These disasters have taken lives, forced people to leave their homes, and damaged buildings and roads.
Experts believe climate change is a major reason for these floods. Rising temperatures affect how rain falls and where water flows. Poor city planning and deforestation also make the problem worse.
As global warming continues, heavy rains and sudden floods are expected to increase. Changing land use, such as cutting down forests and expanding cities, affects how water moves. This leads to more floods in unexpected places.
