April and May traditionally become the official “flood months” in many regions. Spring floods are primarily associated with the build-up of snowpack, and it is inevitable as soon as the first warm sun rays hit the Earth.

However, by the beginning of May, temperatures may go down a little bit, postponing the snowcap melts and massive rainfalls. However, it will be kind of deceptive calm. Such changing temperatures usually lead to more extensive snow, ice build-up, and moisture accumulation in the upper air.
