Ground water is the water that occupies pore and void space below the surface of the earth. This water will flow if their is a suitable pathway (e.g. a porous and permeable rock forming an aquifer) from a region of high to low hydraulic head.

Why would it flood if there is a lot of rain and it goes down valleys fast?
Under normal conditions water flow in = water flow out. When abnormal conditions such as previously wet ground, no ground cover vegetation, an impediment to water flow in the valley exist the design conditions are exceeded and water backs up creating flood conditions.
