How often does a 100-year flood occur?

You have likely heard references to 20, 100, 500 (etc) year flood plains.  Do you know what that really means?  A 100-year flood does not mean that such a flood is likely to occur every 100 years; rather, it means that there is a one in one-hundred (or 1%) chance of such a flood occurring in any given year.

Two  100-year floods could occur two years in a row, or a month apart, depending on how much rain is falling or how much snow falls & how quickly it melts.  A 20-year flood would have a one in twenty (or 5%) chance of occurring in a particular year.  A 500-year flood has a one in 500 (0.2%) chance of occcurring.

Likely the 500 year flood would be more catastrophic than the 100 year flood, which would be more catastrophic than the 20 year flood, etc.
