When bridges such as this one collapse during a flood, it is rarely the pressure of the rushing water against the bridge that causes the bridge to fail. Rather, the rushing water erodes the ground underneath and surrounding the structure that supports the bridge causing the bridge to collapse. Site is 02337500 SNAKE CREEK NEAR WHITESBURG, GA. Carroll County. ]]> http://gallery.usgs.gov/photos/10_01_2009_fj0Mdp5CCw_10_01_2009_0 <![CDATA[Kissengen Spring flooded from Peace River backflow after 3 hurricanes passed through the area, October, 2005.]]> http://gallery.usgs.gov/photos/09_28_2009_i41Pht6GFb_09_28_2009_2 <![CDATA[Hydrologic technicians measure the amount of water from the flooded Suwannee River flowing across a submerged road near Ellaville, Florida in April 2009.]]> http://gallery.usgs.gov/photos/09_22_2009_w06Ev32UTo_09_22_2009_2 <![CDATA[Debris from the Withlacoochee River near Lee, Florida, downstream from Pinetta, Florida, where the record gage height was recorded last week.
