“In some respects, this flash flood event is in the same vein as, say, the Joplin tornado of a decade ago,” Carbin told weather.com. A partially submerged Ford F-150 sits in Trace Creek on Aug. 23, 2021, two days after deadly flash flooding swept through Waverly, Tennessee. Nielsen told weather.com situations like the Tennessee flood are “such a challenge that a lot of people are currently intensely working on it.”“The forecasting of extreme precipitation is recognized by NOAA as a ‘grand challenge’ in need of further funding and research,” Carbin said.Over the past 30 years, flooding has been America’s worst storm-related killer, claiming an average of 85 lives a year.
“Water is so much stronger and more powerful than we give it credit for," Shannon Bowen, a professor at the University of South Carolina who researches disaster management and emergency response, told weather.com. “It is very strong when it’s moving rapidly, and in these storms, it’s often moving quite rapidly.”
Give as much attention to flood watches and warnings as you would with tornadoes and severe thunderstorms.
