1. When the summer rains begin, the soil quickly becomes saturated. 2. Farther south, scattered heavy showers and some flooding will linger over parts of eastern Texas where the soil is saturated from recent rains. 3. Excessive rain saturates the soil, making it difficult for the plants to get the nutrients they need. 4. Given that soil is already saturated from recent heavy rains over parts of the state, flash flooding is possible where slow-moving storms produce locally heavy rain. 5. Local flooding is likely, especially in regions where soils are saturated from recent rains. 6. Renewed flooding is possible across the Ohio Valley, where recent rains have already saturated the soil. 7. The contamination has saturated the soil and tainted the ground water at the former gas plants. 8. With either, the strategy lies in saturating the soil with enough castor oil solution to repel the in-bound moles. 9. Heavy rainfall could occur in the interior and west parts of the island where soils are already saturated with moisture. 10. Liquefaction occurs when sandy soil becomes saturated by groundwater and then is shaken. |
