A flood occurs when heavy rain or melting snow causes rivers to overflow their banks and surrounding areas to fill with water. Floods can damage property with 10-20 feet of water and vehicles can be swept away in only 2 feet of rushing water. To stay safe during a flood, one should have an emergency kit, move to higher ground, and avoid low spots where water can collect.

All about rain and floods by emarie
Emarie Price conducted research on rain and floods. The water cycle involves water evaporating and forming tiny water drops in clouds, which grow into larger clouds that become too heavy and release rain, starting the cycle again. Raindrops range in size from 1/100 to 1/4 inch and fall between 7 to 18 miles per hour. Floods occur after days of heavy rain or snowmelt cause rivers to overflow their banks, and even 2 feet of water can float large vehicles. Flash floods are the leading weather-related cause of death in the United States.
Flood
Flooding occurs most commonly in tropical areas around the world's largest rivers. It can be caused by heavy rainfall over several days, flash floods within six hours of rain, or coastal hazards like tsunamis. During a flood, listen to weather reports and evacuate if instructed to do so by local authorities. Stay out of floodwaters, climb to high ground if outdoors, and do not attempt to cross flowing streams where water is above your ankles.

Girlfight
This document discusses the film Girlfight and topics of gender norms, masculinity and femininity. It includes discussion questions about whether Diana's tomboyish appearance would make people assume she is a lesbian. It also questions whether society finds masculine females or feminine males more acceptable and if male femininity poses a greater threat than female masculinity.

Hurricanes are large storms that can span 600 miles across with winds spiraling inward and outward between 75 and 200 mph. They form over warm ocean waters above 80 degrees Fahrenheit, which provides energy as the warm air rises and condenses into clouds while winds blow inward and outward. Hurricanes can cause major flooding and damage from high winds and waves, so safety tips during one include staying indoors with supplies, avoiding flood-prone areas, and waiting for officials to say it's safe to go outside after the storm passes.

Winter Weather Olivia
Winter weather forms when warm and cold air masses mix together, allowing precipitation like snow or ice to form. It can damage buildings by making them too cold, create puddles when snow melts, and freeze plants. People should prepare emergency kits with food, water, and other supplies and stay safe by waiting with their car if stuck in winter weather.
Winter weather Karissa
This document defines winter weather and describes its characteristics such as being cold, windy, white, and icy. It discusses the ingredients needed to form blizzards, including cold air, moisture, and lift. The document notes potential damages from winter storms such as vehicles in ditches and power outages, and provides some historical facts about notable blizzards. It concludes by offering safety tips such as having a disaster plan and kit with canned food.
Tornados Jake
Tornados form from a thunderstorm when warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico collides with cool, dry air from Canada. They are classified on an F scale from F0 to F5 based on wind speed, with F5 being the strongest at 261-318 mph. Tornados can cause minor damage like branches torn off trees or more severe damage like strongly built houses being completely blown away. Safety tips during a tornado include going to the lowest floor without windows, and after one to stay indoors until authorities say it is safe.
Tornadoes Zach
Tornadoes are violent rotating columns of air that extend from thunderstorms to the ground. They can produce wind speeds over 300 mph and range from 1 to 50 miles long and 2 to 6 miles wide. For a tornado to form, it needs a thunderstorm with warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico interacting with cooler air masses from Canada.
Tornado Coral
Tornados form when warm, humid air meets cold, dry air, causing a swirling funnel of wind to extend from a thunderstorm to the ground. Tornados can destroy anything in their path by blowing away trees, cars, houses, and trucks with winds up to 300 mph, which usually occur during spring and summer storms. Safety tips during a tornado include having a safety kit with food for at least 3 days and going to a basement, or if not available, seeking shelter in a place with no windows or lying low.
Thunderstorms John
Thunderstorms are storms with lightning and thunder that form from moisture, unstable air, and lift. They consist of big black clouds that produce lightning and thunder. Thunderstorms can be dangerous, killing 75-100 people annually in the US through fires or direct strikes. Safety tips include staying indoors away from windows or isolated objects like trees, taking shelter in a building or low-lying area if outside, and waiting at least 30 minutes after the last lightning or thunder to resume activities.
Thunderstorms Gabe
Thunderstorms are caused by cumulonimbus clouds forming from unstable air and moisture. Hail rubbing together in these large, dark clouds creates electricity and lightning. Thunderstorms can be dangerous due to strong winds that damage houses, wildfires they may start, and the risk of being struck by lightning. Safety tips include staying inside away from trees or showers during a thunderstorm.
Thunderstorms Nolan
Thunderstorms form from cumulonimbus clouds when warm and cool air masses meet, causing moisture, unstable air conditions, and rising air. Thunderstorms produce heavy rain, strong winds, hail, lightning, and thunder. They can be dangerous due to lightning strikes causing fires or deaths each year, or strong winds blowing over trees. Safety tips recommend seeking shelter inside a building or car during a thunderstorm.
Thunderstorms Morgan
Thunderstorms form from cumulonimbus clouds that contain moisture, gusty winds, heavy rain or hail. They can be dangerous due to lightning strikes or strong winds, so it's important to go inside when thunder is heard and avoid showers or touching metal. Around 1800 thunderstorms occur daily worldwide.
Thunderstorms Abby
Thunderstorms form from cumulonimbus clouds when there is lift, unstable air, and moisture present. They contain lightning, which is an electric current that travels between the cloud and ground, and thunder, which is the sound caused by lightning. Thunderstorms can cause damage through floods, fires started by lightning, and dents to cars from hail. While they occur frequently around the world, thunderstorms present dangers and it is important to take safety precautions such as going indoors and avoiding contact with others if struck by lightning.
Hurricanes Seth
Hurricanes are intense tropical storms with powerful winds and heavy rain that can cause extensive damage. They form over warm ocean waters between 5 and 15 degrees latitude north and south of the equator. Hurricanes can grow to be over 600 miles wide with winds spiraling inward at speeds from 75 to 200 miles per hour. When hurricanes make landfall, they can flood areas, spawn tornados, and damage cars, buildings, and trees with their strong winds. It is important to have a safety plan and supplies in place in case a hurricane threatens.
Hurricanes Kaitlyn
Hurricanes are strong storms that form over warm ocean waters and have wind speeds over 74 mph. They can extend up to 600 miles wide and last from a week to over a month. Hurricanes start forming when ocean waters reach 80 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, causing clouds and wind to develop into a large tropical storm. Hurricanes can cause severe damage by carrying debris like houses, buildings, and land with their strong winds, posing risks to those caught in the storm.
Hurricanes Bailey
Hurricanes are large, powerful storms that form over warm ocean waters and bring strong winds and heavy rain. They can be over 600 miles wide with wind speeds ranging from 75 to over 200 mph. For a hurricane to form, certain conditions are needed including warm ocean water, converging winds, humid air that rises, and light winds outside the storm. Hurricanes cause significant damage by producing storm surges that flood coastal areas and raising sea levels. Safety tips during hurricanes include listening to reports and evacuating if warned to do so.
Drought
A drought occurs when there is not enough precipitation over an extended period of time. Droughts can last many months or longer and cause severe damage, like dying crops, shrinking water sources, and increased wildfires. The document provides information on drought definition, description, causes, effects, monitoring, and safety tips.
