hey....
This condition can also arise independently from any change in precipitation levels when soil conditions and erosion triggered by poorly planned agricultural endeavors cause a shortfall in water available to the crops. However, in a traditional drought, it is caused by an extended period of below average precipitation.
Unusually heavy rain sometimescauses floods. When there is too much water, it may overflow beyond its normal limits. This water then spreads over land,flooding it. Extreme flooding can also be caused by a tsunami or a large storm that causes a storm surge.
