==Pluvial (Surface) flooding==
Pluvial flooding occurs when a heavier storm may exceed the urban drainage capacity, and it causes flooding in some low-lying areas and results in traffic interruption, economic loss, and other issues.As the climate warms up, the incidence of extreme weather events will increase, as a result the urban drainage capacity will be overwhelmed.
