I see a lot of flat earthers spouting something about cloud seeding when they should really get back to their coloring books.

What causes most flash floods is building in silly areas and trying to control water flow.

Ah a NatGeo insta post. I'm sure its comment section won't be filled with conspiracies, anti-intellectualism, and weird religious posting.

So when it rains suddenly and heavy the soils don’t get enough moist to allow percolation and more so most of the these surface areas have been paved so it runs off soo fast and more

Water falls from sky. Man made drainage systems rush water to creeks rather than pooling in undeveloped areas. Creeks over flow on the way to rivers. Rivers can’t expand due to man made levy system. Water continue to rise in creek not able to hold water. Flooding to a certain extent is man made

Cloud seeding? Climate change? Sure 😂...but how about a stalled out tropical system that dumped 10 inches of water on an already saturated area in a very short time frame...overwhelming rivers and drainage systems.

Deep in the dense jungles of Belize, archaeologists excavating the ancient Maya city of Caracol have unearthed what they believe to be the 1,700-year-old tomb of a ruler. If confirmed, the discovery would mark the site’s earliest known royal burial, and possibly the resting place of its founding king, Te K’ab Chaak. The tomb contains the skeletal remains of a man and a treasure trove of Maya artifacts, including a rare jade mosaic death mask, ceramics, jewelry, and much more. Find out what we know about the ruler within—and the potential connections the tomb may reveal between the Maya and the Teotihuacanos—at the link in bio.

Researchers recently found the tomb under the canopy in an acropolis to the immediate right.

Known to affect the gut microbiome and ward off chronic diseases, anti-inflammatory diets are more popular than ever. Chronic inflammation in the gut can wreak havoc on the entire body—even the brain, where mental health conditions can be triggered. But we can influence inflammation by what we eat—and don't eat. Research has shown that including specific foods in our daily eating habits can help control inflammation while reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and other illnesses. Learn more about what the science says and which foods reduce inflammation at the link in bio. Photograph by Maskot, Getty Images
