The 1994 flood did not stay within the floodplain and valley slopes rather it covered a larger portion of Georgia where many people lost their lives.

Tropical Storm Alberto produced massive flooding over areas of Alabama, Georgia, and Florida in  1994. The first tropical cyclone that occurs during annual hurricane season, Alberto came from a tropical wave over the northwestern Caribbean Sea.

Floodwaters entered hundreds of homes and led people to flee their homes. Georgia experienced the worst effects from the storm. Flooding resulted in the closure of bridges, while croplands were overrun in Georgia alone. By the end of the flood, people were displaced and there was massive destruction of property. The flood was an abnormal magnitude of the river.

<u>Answer:</u>

The units used to measure distances between parallels and between meridians are degrees, minutes, and seconds.

  • In order to pinpoint any two locations lying across two different latitudes or longitudes, the distance can be tracked down to minutes and seconds.
  • The distance between two closest latitudes or two closest longitudes can only be measured in minutes and seconds because they would be placed only 59 minutes and 59 seconds apart.

antoniya [11.8K]

Seafloor of the Galveston is full of sand and sediment which is suspended in and around the bay.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The water in and around the Galveston bay. The reason for the water to be brown in that area is because of the sediments and other material which are suspended to be brown in the water.

The water in the Galveston is shallow as a reason of which the sediments and the sand turn over in that area is high, making it look brown in color instead of blue. Thus water seems to be dirty and muddy at many point of time.
