From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A one-hundred-year flood is calculated to be the level of flood water
expected to be equaled or exceeded every 100 years on average. The 100-year
flood is more accurately referred to as the 1% annual exceedance probability
flood, since it is a flood that has a 1% chance of being equaled or
exceeded in any single year.[1] Similarly, a flood level expected to be
equaled or exceeded every 10 years on average is known as a ten-year flood.

发帖数: 4393 | 2 How often does a 100-year flood occur?
Large floods are often given designations as a "one-hundred-year flood" but
a 100-year flood does not mean that such a flood occurs once every 100 years
; instead it means that there is a one in one-hundred (or 1%) chance of such
a flood occurring in a given year.
Two 100-year floods could occur a year apart or even a month apart -- it all
depends on how much rain is falling or how quickly the snow melts. A "20-
year flood" has a one in twenty (or 5%) chanc |

For the home inspector, they don't know much about flood plain or elevation.
You need a land surveyer or land engineer to deal with flood related issue,
if you need to find out more. But I don't see why being in a flood zone is a
critical factor here. All it matters is that you need pay about $2,000

million customers who lost power during Hurricane Sandy. Customers without
power currently number between 1M and 1.1M. The largest storm in PSE&G
history caused major flooding of substations and damaged power lines and
other equipment. Today the utility successfully brought three flooded
substations back on line to restore feeder lines that serve Newark,
Elizabeth and Newark Airport. Work will continue on other stations includ... 阅读全帖 |

home insurance绝大多数不包括flood term.
有一种Federal Flood Insurance program 专门保flood, 这个program被abuse的很厉
害，很多人专门在flood zone里面建破房子，每年flood一次claim一次，用来赚钱 |

The skiing is still good at those Colorado resorts still open. The views to
the west from Denver are still of freshly snow-packed mountains. Colorado

forerunner是第一个文明种族，他们在宇宙中可以说统制了很长时间，是一种类似于人
类的生物。后来在一个星球上，他们遇到了虫族flood。这是一种寄生生物，可以将一
切生物都转化为自己的同类。forerunner于是就建造了halo，作为终级武器，可以一举
消灭宇宙中所有的flood，但同时也会毁灭其他一切生物。在建造halo的同时，他们也
造了机器人，就是那个spark，它们是为了保护halo以及为了确保halo的运行而存在的
。最终forerunner得以成功地将flood控制在一个halo中，但也基本被灭族，也并没有
开启halo毁灭宇宙。
然后就是现在，分为人类和星盟（covenant）两派。人类在不断地殖民扩张时，一天遇
到了不知名的外星生物的袭击，即星盟，导致前期开拓编队全灭。接下来是halo reach

Creationists are infiltrating US geology circles in an attempt to push the
theory that the Earth is no more than 10,000 years old and that recognised
geological phenomena which appear to contradict this idea can be accounted
for by Noah's Flood and similar Bible stories.

The terms "10 year", "50 year", "100 year" and "500 year" floods are used to
describe the estimated probability of a flood event happening in any given
year. Their primary use is for determining flood insurance rates in flood
hazard areas. Using historic weather and hydrograph data , experts derive
the estimated rate of flow or discharge of a river or creek. A 10 year flood
has a 10 percent probability of occurring in any given year, a 50 year
event a 2% probabaility, a 100 year event a 1% prob |

A massive nor’easter pummeling the East Coast is responsible for at least
five deaths.
The storm has strengthened rapidly today, undergoing what's known as
bombogenesis or "bombing out," when a low-pressure system drops 24
millibars in 24 hours. Dubbed a "bomb cyclone," the catchphrase was
coined earlier this year as a nickname for another nor’easter back in early
January.
At least five have died in the storm. A 6-year-old bo... 阅读全帖 |
