Flooding at a commercial building following a storm.

Flash flooding is caused by heavy or excessive rainfall in a short period of time, generally less than 6 hours. Flash floods are usually characterized by raging torrents after heavy rains that rip through river beds, streets, or mountain canyons sweeping everything before them. They can occur within minutes or a few hours of excessive rainfall.
